I just bought a new laptop and was forced to buy a copy of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Well actually it came with it and I stalled for months hating the fact I was actually thinking of sending m$ a single penny.
Anyhow, I got over it and ordered the laptop. Now I have a copy of Win 7 that was never booted once as I had my Linux install DVD in the drive on the very first boot!
I'm not looking to make a huge sell here and would have paid Acer the exact same price for the laptop if they would have just left the HD blank! Even if I sell it really cheap I can say I didn't buy it someone else did!
So, can my Win 7 serial be of any use to somebody else or it is somehow labeled as an OEM and not installable as a generic?
Thanks.
