So it gets you a copy but it's not a valid license.. if you are ok with that you might as well get it off of bittorrent (though this will probably be easier to deal with; no cracks and playing cat and mouse with activation).
then again, if EULA's were taken strictly, 99% of PC users would be in violation at some point or another. as far as i'm concerned, i'll be "evaluating" this until the crackers release a patched Windows 7 that includes slipstreamed updates that fix the holes Microsoft missed the first time around
