If anyone else needs a Windows 7 activation code because they wrote over their copy with Ubuntu, PM me. I'll laugh at you and then give it to you.

where are you getting these activation codes?

Alright, I did, but it keeps saying "the syntax of the command is incorrect."
Did I write the identifier wrong?

Lesson learned, eh Raccoon?

Yep. And that Lesson is: If there is going to be a Promo that wants you to use a Different Operating System, Use Someone Else's Computer OR Cheat to get it.

I know someone who used to work in computer repair. He still has about 5 legit Win7 codes, sitting in a box somewhere, being lonely and unused.
