Everyone in this thread is missing that this is just a copy of the OS. OP said nothing about having a computer, or internet, or electricity.

I'll take Windows 7 because it was still issued on DVD which would be useful as a signal mirror for getting rescued.

Errrmmm. So is 11. I have tons. Never take them out if the packaging but I still has them.

Oh, really? I thought they were distributing on USB drives these days. Are they OEM copies?

They may be OEM. I don't really recall. I just buy the cheapest Pros from my local computer shop.

I believe you can DvD, USB, or none. But don't quote me on that.
