At the moment you can get updates but it doesn't take long for Microsoft to notice multiple PCs with the same serial number connecting for the same updates from multiple IP address's. Then they block that serial number and you are stufffed.

Also I find it strange that people are prepared to pirate so much software . How would you like your employer dropping your wages to 1/10th of what they are? Software has been written by someone who does it (on the whole) as a method of employment. It has normally taken years of training and a lot of time to produce software of commercial quality. By pirating it you are taking money out of that persons/companies pocket.
