So if you download anything that claims to be a keygen - you will probably get a nasty surprise.<br><br>There are however activation bypasses which fully activate the RTM version of 7 (read about it on DownloadSquad) using the infamous Lenovo Windows 7 Ultimate OEM SLP key that leaked last month and this version runs indefinitely until MS chooses to do something about it. In October however when more SLP keys are released by manufacturers like Sony, Dell, HP etc, Microsoft will have no chance of stopping it since these keys will be out in the retail channel and stopping them will also cut off legitimate customers. Microsoft could do something with regards to this Lenovo key simply because nothing is being sold yet so installed products can easily be recalled.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sax25]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 21st 2009 11:05AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Windows 7 runs free without activation for 120 days with simple command]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/21/windows-7-runs-free-without-activation-for-120-days-with-simple/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/21/windows-7-runs-free-without-activation-for-120-days-with-simple/</guid><description><![CDATA[LOL , I remember doing that for Vista years ago .

No modem, ethernet, or sound. I didn't have the driver discs, and I didn't have a thumb drive, so I was left scratching my head as to getting the thing on the internet. Luckily someone came along with one, but this contrasts starkly to my Windows 7 install on my laptop, which recognized everything from the touch screen to the wireless to the fingerprint reader. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kazbaeden]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 21st 2009 12:41PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Windows 7 runs free without activation for 120 days with simple command]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/21/windows-7-runs-free-without-activation-for-120-days-with-simple/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/21/windows-7-runs-free-without-activation-for-120-days-with-simple/</guid><description><![CDATA[Running the RC and I love it.
