to buy another activation code would be the same price as buying a whole nother operating system, which is why they just sell you the operating system instead of seperate activation codes

U can only install Windows XP on another PC if u have the disk and its LEGAL to install it on another from the activation code. This will cost u quite a bit of money though (but worth it).

Come on.... first of all you are not a newbie... you should have read the forum rules by now... This is not legal.

If you want a FREE Operating System, do some research and pick a Linux distro that will suit your needs. There is openoffice and a ton of other free linux applications that look and feel almost like windows.
