Budget-priced Windows license

This *is* illegal, it *is* probably supporting illegal activities on behalf
of the key reseller, and the key may end up randomly deactivating at some
point in the future once Microsoft figures out that the key got stolen.
(Not sure if that still happens now-a-days, but I believe it used to.)
Please don't suggest that people participate in software piracy. I realize
that it might seem like, "hey, if it works, it works, that's what matters",
but that only works from a technical perspective (which is usually the only
one that matters in the open-source world, but not in the closed-source
world). From a moral and legal perspective, this is a bad idea.
