Thats strange since Microsoft system works by telling you its illegal, making you wait 5 seconds to login telling you to buy it and then letting you use it as normal, if its determined to be cracked.

Its personal preference really but if your on a budget and the price of the OS means the difference between a high end gpu and a mid range id definatley wait and get windows later.
