stp-computers.co.uk sells product keys and software download if required for Win7 at well under the normal price, does anyone have any experience of this firm? Does the key/download ever arrive and if it does, are the claims they make about it being recognised by microsoft and updates being no problem borne out?

If in doubt.....don't!
Look at the savings(?) made by buying an iffy copy, and then having to buy a genuine copy on top of that.
Without bothering to check the site.....they are not quoting prices to Students are they?
You have to prove you're a Student to get the prices.0 -

Ah yes, forgotten about nominet. Postcode given is wrong - could be a genuine mistake I suppose - streetview "interesting", website registered in recent months, "about" tab seems to be written about another company.
I think I made my decision even as I wrote the initial post but thanks for confirming my misgivings.If you can't think of anything nice to write, say nothing. Rudeness isn't clever.0 -
Dodgy or at the very least someone that's likely to not be around when you find the licence key stops working!
No contact details, also same site layout, different name http://www.ekmpowershop14.com/ekmps/shops/mstek/
My guess is some individual that's selling MS Technet serial numbers or something similar.... Softwareforstudents is the cheapest software around (for those that are eligible) and they're not this cheap.
I'd stay away personally.
