Another PID question but this one is different

[jrlingle]

Ok so I have read a bunch of PID topic and I haven't seen this
situation.

I purchased 30 thin clients from HP with the XPe OS on them. I have
built my image with the eval embedded studio to make sure I can it to
work and it did. I then purchased the embedded studio and rebuilt my
image. The problem is the only thing I got from HP is a sticker inside
the thin that is in this format:
On Line 1 "Windows XP Embedded" Line 2 "XXXXX-XXX-XXX-XXX" Line
3"XXX-XXXXX".
I believe that is just a tracking ID. How do I get my PID, I shouldn't
have to buy licenses b/c I already own them. Any help is greatly
appreciated.

Is there a little key next to any of the numbers - line 2 or line 3?

No, there is no PID on the
license stickers any more.
The PID is on a seperate label in
every XP-Embedded license envelope.

To use XP-Embedded, you have to sign a OEM CLA agreement to
microsoft.You will then also be responsible for our image (and not HP any
more).

If you delete the HP image, the direct OEM license will go out.
So, you have to buy own stickers and then you will become
your own OEM PID.
