PC World magazine has a partner that is selling legal copies of Windows 10 Home Edition for $30, and Pro Edition for $40. If you're thinking of building a new computer in the next couple of years, I recommend snapping one up. I'm planning to build several over the next few years, so I've already picked up three copies.
Here are the links:

I recently built a computer for myself and this is how I licensed it. It works.

Just bought two from Taipan's site. Don't really need them at the moment but that's quite a deal and I am hiping to build a decent desktop here within the next year or so for VR purposes.

Another good method is if you have a Windows 7 (and possibly 8) key, install any version of Windows 10, go to activate, and enter the key, it should activate as whatever version of Win7/8 the key came from. I do believe this makes the key a one-time thing, though.

Any truth to the rumor that Microsoft will be issuing Windows 12 sometime first quarter, 2021? :LOL:

I just built a new computer and used my old Windows 7 Pro key and it worked just fine for Windows 10 Pro :)
