He probably has the windows thing where you pay a certain amount for unlimited licenses. I forget what its called but I believe its for large buisnesses. Either that or he just uses trial keys/un activated versions.

If you look closely, most of the time his test bench windows arent activated. He just fresh installs it and leaves it unactivated for testing purposes. Im sure he has a volume license he uses if he needs them for his work PCs and the windows is staying on the PC for an extended time.

I heard somewhere, (back before win10) that the reason it said "not a genuine copy of windows" in the corner was because on the testbenches they were always changing out hardware 'n stuff.
