A friend of mine in Mexico has been stuck using a pirated version of Windows XP for many years, and we've been looking for a deal on a legal, non-OEM copy of Windows 7 so he could at least try to have a more modern OS on his system. (The Windows 10 upgrade offer doesn't hurt, either!) I found one today and I thought it was legitimate, but now I'm not so sure since this doesn't match up with Microsoft's current "How to tell" pictures.
I figured asking here would be fine since you guys have helped me out in the past.
Warning, pictures are HUGE to make sure you can see the details.

The edges of the disc are also rounded, with no sharp corners, which is unusual and makes me suspect this -is- legit since my own copy of Windows 7 (which I purchased from a seller here, and that matches up with the How to Tell page) is like that.
The plastic clamshell didn't include the outer cardboard sleeve, it was just the discs in the case, the card with the key (the sticker has that line across the middle of it, as shown in the How to Tell page) and a booklet.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
