OK, I understand this may totally violate a EULA or forum rules or whatever. All I'm saying is that I'm sure lots of people got in on the 19 dollar ACM thing and have 4 keys for each of the 32 and 64 bit versions of Win 7 Pro. If you're not using them, or not going to be using them anytime soon, maybe some members can help others out. Its just an idea, and I understand if this thread gets locked. Just trying to help some legit people in need without funds to buy the retail software.
Yes, I will gift a couple myself, despite being legit. Maybe we need an essay writing qualification? LOL
Ideas? Thoughts? Anyone?
The whole purpose here is to help real students who got screwed over because so many non-legit people got in on the deal. That's all. I know there may be other avenues to get the software cheap, but they may not be open to every computer science/software/etc student.
Edit: Come on guys, lots of us got 1600 bucks (8 x 200 dollars) in OS software for 19 bucks, lets try to at least give one away to legit people in need

This proposal is clearly in violation of the licensing agreement that you and others agreed to when applying for the MSDN/AA memberships.
First in the list of "usage guidelines""
"You may not give copies of loaned or downloaded software to anyone else. Other eligible students must obtain software using the method(s) set up by the MSDNAA program administrator."
