I'd like to buy an upgrade version, but I'm not sure I can get it activated. I run multiple OSes and re-partition my drives often, and one day when I tried to activate the XP Pro I had purchased, I was informed by MS that I had used up all my activations for that CD. So although I'm eligible for the upgrade, if it means I have to have an activated XP installation, I'm dead. Hence, I would like to download the RTM and key so that I'll have something I can use after I pay for the upgrade... unlike the useless XP Pro CD I now have.
So how do I activate this download after I have it?

you can always call the number and activate it just fine, its just the automatic online system that shuts down after too many tries. I think I had to call them 3 different times because of extra reinstalls beyond the online limit

That sounded bad lol. Either way, the above discussion is silly and based false grounds. The guy who actually pays for a legal copy of windows 7 has all right legally to download a pirated copy or whatever since he already owns the user rights of one copy. It's in that case fully legal just as it is to maintain multiple copies of your bought music cd's and dvd's. As long as you don't share them which he didn't imply in any way.
