Also note that MS tried to sue some people who had bought new computers and decided to sell the copies of windows that came with them. (They lost!). Now they have another plan, instead of giving you a windows CD, they are having most of the computer makers have a copy of the installation files on a "Backup partition" on the hard drive of the computer you buy. -- noah silva On Wed, 24 Apr 2002, mike.h wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > > > AFAIK, it is *not* passed, since licenses are non-transferable. > > > > MS OS licence IS transferrable IFF with the hardware it's installed upon and > a few other restrictions.... > > - -- > mike.h@acm.org > > > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) > Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org > > iD8DBQE8xvbHiHSfwGRxUJQRAk4XAKCiUs3wk5gYH29+ubsQHKl6S1KGDQCfYexL > yHbK4bEWbgumzoD6F5H+lNE= > =F3hM > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > > ______________________________________________________________________ > Philadelphia Linux Users Group - http://www.phillylinux.org > Announcements-http://lists.phillylinux.org/mail/listinfo/plug-announce > General Discussion - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mail/listinfo/plug > > ______________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group - http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements-http://lists.phillylinux.org/mail/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mail/listinfo/plug
