Well, heres the story : Bought an authentic windows vista upgrade package off
amazon.
Like many people this guy had bought vista and hated it. So he sold it.
Now heres the concern, on buying this and loading all seemed fine. Now vista
is saying the package is already registered. I'm beginning to get that
sinking feeling.
Now on the package there is nothing to say no resale. So I think the guy
honestly thought it was ok. The only thing to suggest NO resale is a No
returns sticker on the box, the kind PC world would stick on..
So far no response from Mircosoft after I contacted them...Am I going to get
screwed with licencing here!? You know I'm happy to send the package back to
microsoft so they can see its not a copy, but I hope they don't expect me to
pay out further for activation, cause I think that the end of the road for me
and vista.
Having the real package is one thing but not having the choice to be able to
sell on a package if you don't like it is something else. Its kinda like
buying a car and then the manufacturer says No you can't sell it when you
don't want it anymore.
Well lets wait an see what MS have to say. Hopefully it will be a reasonable
response. I the meantime better start reading up on Linux or something.
