You know the answer to this already if your posting here. Just buy a real license later.

This is my opinion, it doesn't mean I'm right and is liable to change at any time. I may offend of which I apologize in advance.

Well I would rather pay oem price than I had go to g2a, have the key become invalid after a year and go through the hassle all over again. G2a sounds great, but there is a reason they are cheap.

Maybe try to get a beta copy of Windows 9 when that comes out (maybe by the end of this month). I think there's an announcement coming Sept 30 about it, and the beta may be released then. If not, probably soon after that. That will usually allow you to have it installed until after the new version comes out officially and beyond for a few months. There's talk of this version of Windows being free too.

Well about that Win8 on g2a - I bought myself a copy, actually even one of my friends did and neither of us is complaining. Everything is working fine and it was damn cheap indeed :) Do you have a proof of the sitiation in which the Windows stopped working after some time?
