   I miss the old BBSLAW echo, was full of useful information back in the day.   
      
   If you're talking about fair use for using a downloaded/installed OS when you   
   have shown good-faith efforts in owning a license, Microsoft has been tough on   
   that. I work in an environment where we used an imaging system to provide a   
   common image on multiple systems, and had OEM licenses purchased with each   
   system (the "Microsoft" tax); MS still complained even though we had a 1:1   
   ratio of licenses to systems.
