OEM Win XP Home Edition Legal to sell?
I purchased a new laptop about 4 months ago and it came with XP Home Edition. The same day I purchased it, I reformatted and partitioned the drive to my preference and installed XP Pro and RH 9. It is sealed with a COA and never used nor registered. Is it legal to sell it? I will never use it.
From my understanding, it is legal as long as you include a piece of hardware with the OEM OS. Correct?

The short answer is: no.
The long answer is: not really. |

No. The OEM license can only be sold with it's original hardware. You can also not transfer the license to another PC.

I know an I.T. Firm that have sold them with a power cord, or any, I mean ANY piece of hardware lying around. It might not be ethical, but it isn't illegal, per say.
