Am I the only one here that has a license for all their installs of XP, but still actually uses a "stolen" (i.e. acquired from a former customer) corporate copy of the XP CD, just because it makes life easier...


I do similar. I put together a slipstreamed install CD from a copy of XP Pro at work. I use my license keys, though. Mind you, I didn't pay for those anyway -- we got a bunch of free copies when Rio visited Microsoft way back when.

In fact, I've got several Windows licenses that I'm not using. Off the top of my head, I've got the (mentioned) two free XP Pro licenses, which I am using. I've got a copy of Windows XP x64, which I'm not using. I've got a copy of Windows 2003 x64, which I'm also not using (this one was a freebie from TechEd 2005), and two copies of XP Home, also which I'm not using.
