Are you running Windows 10 on a 5k Retina iMac?


so here scoop.

bought copy of windows 8.1 pro (full version) off ebay in october last year.

thought did enough due diligence, seller had long ebay history no negative comments. phoned microsoft check license legit , confirmed much. today ms revoked license called them , confirmed key had been used on multiple computers. seller has since had ebay , paypal account suspended , suspect reason why. have opened case paypal , expect money back, if paypal don't play ball intend credit card charge back.

now? want copy of windows run games under bootcamp virtualisation out of question. figure options are:-

1. buy copy of windows 8.1 ms £180. not going happen. @ price feel pushing me using illegal software. it's particularly galling knowing charged £30 when released.

2. keep buying copies somewhere ebay , hope one. if each copy gets me 4 months use before being revoked can still buy 6 copies before pay as ms charges (stupid huh?). , win 10 out before then.

3. stick 2 fingers ms , find dodgy key, serve them right charging mental money.

4. load 5k retina imac windows 10 now, , therein lies question. have installed on 5k? stable? things should wary of? bootcamp compatible? can upgrade straight current install?

thanks.
