AFAIK you cannot buy it anymore, apart from stock already on the shelves.

This is for an old PC I'm setting up for my maids daughter so price is the defining factor.

If this is true, then it is hilarious. The source is all hush hush, but I wouldn't be surprised. When the mods hear the word torrent they shiver but imagine this being openly supported by them.

Clearly if we are not aware of the supplier or source there could be many unethical possibilities for the reselling of such keys. Oh well you could always install a trial version which only expires after 30 days and removed your wallpaper. Seeing that it is for:

Many torrent sites have trial discs which are faster than FTP downloads in some instances.

Sorry gents, no more stock and my supplier has turned out to be rather non-forthcoming with licences that all of a sudden will not activate.

I have sent the relevant parties a PM with details, if I have missed you and you did NOT get a PM from me today (26/03/2015) please drop me another PM.

My apologies for my inactivity in this thread.

I have also closed the thread for now, if anything changes in the future I will open a new thread.

I love the "all of a sudden" phrase. That rat you smelled a while back took a while to show up.
