then you say oh i got a virus and had to wipe the computer they go oh sorry to hear that

then they ask you the script questions

is this installed on 1 computer

yes

then some other stupid questions

then they go ok then click on this type in these numbers

then click on activate then tada you have a full working copy of windows with updates and no hassle of cracking and what not
Except it is this type of attitude which will drive Apple to implement a serial and phone home system in their software. The extra money for the Family is nothing really when compared to the price of Windows.
You state that you don't want to spend money on the OS. It is the OS that makes Apple products the superior experience.
