Ok. I need W7 for my new PC tonight. Where can I buy just the key? I dont want to wait for a disc to be mailed.

I already have a Windows 7 install disc, but since I'll be using a new PC I need a new key since my current W7 is OEM. I am installing W7 on my new pc via a usb flash drive. How can I get just the key? I've found ways of buying Windows 7 to download right instantly to download, but I dont want it downloaded on the old PC im on right now.

This is where 3 days of prep time and forethought (shipping) would have been good.

There is nowhere valid to buy 'just a key' for Windows 7. After the release of Win 8, MS disallows any resellers to sell only the license key.

Just go ahead and install Windows 7 now without the key. You can activate later with your key when you get it. You are allowed to use the OS for up to 30 days without activating.
