A picture of the underside of a Dell Latitude 7290, showing a Certificate of Authenticity for Windows XP Professional Corporate Final, with the popular leaked FCKGW product key. The background is a blend of the Bliss wallpaper, and a photo showing a burned Windows XP CD in front of an XP launch countdown. The handwritten text "devils0wn" is vaguely visible above "Windows XP Professional"

@halotroop2288 @tendstofortytwo Hi, Caroline. I'm glad you asked...the FCKGW key was a famous Windows XP activation key that was leaked several weeks before XP actually released.

If you look at the pic I posted, you can see that gentleman is holding a burned copy with the key 35 days before release. :)

@halotroop2288 @ann3nova the FCKGW key is a famous volume license (ie. no online activation required) key for Windows XP that was leaked before XP was even released. microsoft eventually blocked it but it became extremely well known before that. this page has some more detail: wiki.robotz.com/index.php/The_

@smn bit young for that 😅 by the time anyone with authority let me near a computer the key was already blocked

krl, the FreeDOS equivalent to XP/2003 is ReactOS.

I'm more surprised that a laptop that was manufactured in 2018 came with an XP license sticker.
