Hey, 

 

I'm looking for a cheaper way to get Windows. 90 bucks is quite a lot for cheap machines...you understand right. 

 

I don't want anyone suggesting pirating. 

I know someone on here has a G2A link on their sig but when it is in stock it's been higher than what i could have bought outright from a more reputable seller. 

 

 

Need any additional info, just ask.

It's called hardwareswap for a reason. No software, just hardware. Softwareswap doesn't sell it either, I think microsoftsoftwareswap is a thing.

I mean what else can you do?

Cheap windows is an oxymoron. 

Was wondering if there are any other ways to get it essentially... with virtual items its hard to prove you didn't get something too.
