    You can skip that step and you will be given a 30 day trial of Windows 7, at the end of the 30 days windows will prompt you to insert a legitimate license which you should buy or windows will lock you out.

    Either way you gonna have to get a legitimate license in other to continue or use Windows. Hope that help to make up your mind.

    Windows 7 cannot be hacked by conventional means. The code written on the CD has been used before and therefore is invalid. Current cracking software cannot hack past this feature in Windows 7. The only way to upgrade is to legitimately pay for an activation code which can be purchased in your local Wal-Mart or Best Buy.

    Why not go with Linux instead? It's a better and more secure Operating System. It's more stable, and best of all it's completely free. http://ubuntu.com/
