I already signed up, since I'm still a student for another semester, but I did have a couple of questions. Still waiting for the payment to process.
1) A few pages back someone mentioned that the key could only be activated once and that you can't reinstall with it, is that true?
2) Is it an OEM version, or full, or a special version provided by them?
3) Will the key expire in a year when the subscription is up? I'm not sure how it'd work but I thought I'd ask anyway.
I'm an US citizen currently studying in South Korea and have a credit card form South Korea. How should I proceed in joining?
Welcome guys! :)
I started this thread as an alternative for students who can't get Windows 7 direct from MSDNAA because their school doesn't have the subscription, same as my wife's college.
If your school is on MSDNA list you can get Windows 7 PRO for free because the subscription is paid by your school.
Enjoy!
Hi masterB, since we are in the same boat(College not on MSDNA list), how do you make of these FAQs?
