The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Yes, but the terms of the license are that all software obtained via Technet can only be used for evaluation or testing purposes. You may not use it in any "production environment" (my quotes, not Microsoft's).

    After my subscription ends, if I choose not to renew it, will they blacklist all of my keys?

    No. I'm pretty sure there's a FAQ on the Technet website that will answer most, if not all, of your questions.

    Office is available for $60 on student discounts.
    I would expect that Win7 will be available for $50- or less.
