    Nope. You said less reputable companies don't put a COA STICKER on their machines, I was telling you that was rubbish.

    If you didn't understand my reply perhaps you shouldn't be in control of such a complicated machine.

    First of all, I didn't write anything of the sort, but I am in agreement with the person who wrote it.

    Secondly, if it were a machine bought without an OS and Windows was installed via a Volume Licence, the OS would have to be uninstalled prior to disposal. They usually just remove the HDD. No COA, no legitimate install.

    Now how about you wind your neck in?

    It might be a solidly built laptop, but it's still six years old.

    Perhaps one could pay a little more for a laptop built in this decade.
