I was reading another tech forum and someone made a topic about OEM software. From the posts people said that it's technically illegal to buy parts for a computer, build it for yourself and then install an OEM for W7 or 8; that it's only legal if you build it for someone else or sell it along with parts to someone else, is that true? I have built many a computer where I have bought all the parts along with an OEM W7 from newegg, so have I technically been doing something illegal all this time? Not that Microsoft would ever know but I am just curious.
