Windows 7 licenses, just as bad as windows Vista licenses

I found out recently that windows 7 licenses are still tied to the hardware you first install it on in the same way vista is;

Until they change their license model and a license means a permanent license not just on the hardware you first install it on I'm not interested and will be sticking with xp.

Windows 7 is too expense for me to have it stop working after a year or two.
