So I assembled my nice and shiny upgrades into my desktop computer. It was not upgraded for at least 5 years and and that update was long time overdue. I bought Asus
M4A79T with
Phenom II 955 CPU,
6 GB CORSAIR DDR3 1TB WD Caviar hardrive,
SATA SonyOptiArc burner. Nice stuff, well spent $500 dollars.
Windows XP refused to boot with these rather radical hardware changes, so I had no chance but to reinstall OS. That is when things went south.
I realized that I misplaced my genuine XP disk that I was given at Microsoft Developers Conference dedicated to official release of XP in 2001.
I googled a bit on the subject and found:

It gives you a ms support number. So I called, and they explained to me that they will not replace my cd and even won't give my my serial number even though I AM REGISTERED IN THEIR SYSTEM. Now I will vent.
You fucking idiotic morons, you can shove your operating systems in your stupid asses. I don't use your operating system at home and has been successful at avoiding it at work . Because it sucks. You fucking numb-nuts realized that internet browser need tabs only in 2007. I considered people who use your products in 2009 misled or ignorant(second is inexcusable). There is absolutely no excuse for windows existence in Businesses IT sector, because all spectrum of Microsoft products is inferior to competing products. I will not bother to go in details. I do spend money for software and Microsoft will get absolute 0 from me as it did for last 8 years. Dear Microsoft, enjoy your
declining market share and free-fall.
For those who have had legal media but misplaced it,
Our beloved PirateBay offers bunch of absolutely stunning windows distributions with SP3 and all fixes in places, + optimized service configuration and all bloatware removed. It weights 280mb and boots my system in 15 seconds. Must die....
UPDATE:
Microsoft to Cut 3,000 More Jobs hahaha they probably fired two thirds of IE development team.
