What your telling me its illegal to change a registry setting on a computer you own
It's breach of contract.
are you guys for real.
I live in several quantum states.
Way i look at it is if they don't want you to have aero on your computer they shouldn't sell you an operating system with it
They sold you a license to use the Operating System. That's how software has worked for quite some time.
its up to the owner whether they turn it on
No, it's not. Again- License. Sort of like how having a drivers license gives you a license to drive, but not a license to run over a bunch of Nuns "What! it's my car I can run over whatever I want".
i can understand the forums worries about encouraging people to do it but no link was put up explaining how its done, just a statement that it was possible (and very easy to do).
From what I read, it's not easy at all and seems like a genuine waste of time that could be used to install a free Linux distribution that doesn't require workarounds that break the EULA for basic functionality.
