Finally, now I don’t need to have to call a number to get my XP activated, I can just use this.
For those not in the know, XP’s activation requirements are so harsh that your computer just gets disabled completely after the 30 day grace period if you don’t activate at all. I live in a place where people really don’t tend to buy operating systems, so this was a gigantic letdown.
You know what? Fuck Windows XP. There. I said it. And I’m taking the downvotes without remorse.

I think it’s allowed to hate anti-customer practices and have good memories of an actually somewhat user-friendly OS that just worked for many people in many other regards.
I hate Windows. I will always fondly remember XP and Win 7. Windows 7 should’ve been the last Windows.
So I am not mad at you. You shall be forgiven, and I am even going to turn the other cheek and give you an upvote. It’s what Windows XP would’ve wanted me to do, too, I am sure of it.

Windows 7 was the first and last version that I didn’t immediately (and lastingly) despise. Something something stopped clocks etc.
