Topic: Can you activate more than one computer using the phone trick?

In Vista, you could use the same key for multiple installations. The second computer would claim that the key was already used. If you called the phone number they gave you, entered the key, and then said it was only installed on one it would activate the second computer.

Does this trick work with 7, or has Microsoft gotten around this loophole somehow?

Yes you can. Up to about 10 so far ;) For testing purposes only.

If violation of the EULA is considered a "tip," can we start posting links for torrents of softwares then? For "backup" purposes?

I guess I would classify this to be in the 'hacks' category.
