This was written quite some times ago so not sure right now still apply or not.

But then, unlike previous windows, you can still download and install legally windows 10 without the product key. Later when got fund just purchase the key.

Yeah. Basically you can't customized the desktop wallpaper or change color only. Everything else works the same.

My motherboard died few days ago. Since I change motherboard then my old license no linger aplicable (using old win 7 oem license).

So installed new windows 10. Havent activated yet. Use as normal except that watermark thing.
