I don’t plan to spend money on an OS; I’m sticking with Linux right now (though I haven’t yet, but I’ll before the end of the month) or I’ll ask a friend if they have any extra keys. Mah beb is probably going to hand me his Windows Vista key, I think.

vista isn't terrible, but it doesn't quite match the quality of 7 or even 8. And sure, I mentioned that in a way that sounds more impressive. It does launch quicker, handles certain programs faster, and with some effort, most users won't notice the difference between 7 and 8—especially with 8.1. I'm planning to install vista along with some Linux distributions. B) I'll also be acquiring a few SSDs eventually.

Well congratulations on your new job and of course getting a legit version of Windows (and if one day it can be extended to everything, if it is not already than superb!) The authors/developers of anything needs to be supported. I honestly believe, among all software, Windows is the best deal offer. It is like 120$ or so (well depending if you got OEM license of retail), and have it for 3 years (or more if you don't upgrade to the next one as it comes out). It is not that much per year. In your case, well Windows 10 upgrade is free, so it is a smart move. You'll get even more for your money. If Windows 10 was paying, then it would not be, as I would say, wait for Windows 10 to be released to get 3 years at least of of enjoy the latest version. So in your case you'll get 3 years and several months (assuming that Windows 11 will be released 3 years from Windows 10). And I also believe, among all the software you can pirate the only one you don't want to pirate is the operating system. I mean it operate your system, even if no crack is applied to the acquired ISO, files can be modified (and I have had experienced in this form encountering 2 person with illegally acquired licenses of Windows. One that looks like had a keylogger where her accounts was compromised, and the other I don't know what it was doing, but a set time of the day, it would use heavily the network). Modified files, can't be detected by an anti-malware or anti-virus. These software don't scan code to see if it is a security issue or not. That is not how they work. They look for a signature of a virus or malware. If files are replaced where they have been modified in some way, well it be legit to the eyes of your security software.
