i purchased a retail xp pro on ebay which was an open box but has all the
original materials, box and all. the seller said that it was not
registered. when i received it, i installed and tried to activate. it said
that it has "exceeded the activation limit and call the number below". I
went thru all the rest with a MS person and he activated it for me. Is this
copy legal? Will the person(s) who installed it before be able to call MS
and reactivate their (now illegal) copy or receive updates on this now that
the activation number has been changed? should i seek a refund?
