I know. That's why I'm running the free copy that I got from the MS convention 🙂.

ah crap, I got mine for free with that baseball and bobble head offer... and i sold the bottle head, making 15 bucks on ebay from it..
 
I got it for free at one of the student things as well. I have yet to use it though, I don't want to bother w/ activation. That and I work for a university.

Activation is so easy. It takes all of a minute to do.

Where did you get it for $30?

Did you read the post?

No ****** I read the post. To say you bought it from Microsoft is as vague as me saying I bought food at the store.

What store, what section, any promotion? XP Pro for $30 is damn cheap.

It differs for MSDN AA software:

Q. Do students need to uninstall the software at the end of the course?

A. No, students are allowed to keep the software they have installed, but they may not check out or download additional MSDNAA software unless they continue taking courses from a member department. Regardless, they are still bound by the terms of the MSDNAA license agreement.

The department is responsible for informing students of the usage limitations governed by the MSDNAA license agreement, and the department should periodically remind students of those conditions.
