    Well the illegal thing to distribute is the serial key and homemade copies of XP also you're not circumventing any copy protection either so I'm pretty sure selling genuine discs on to others is fine even by the forum rules.


    the illegal bit is not selling backup coppies of the disks.

    thats not illegal what so ever. without serials.

    u cant legally transfare keys from pcs 2 another. because its sold with the PC bought.

    no questions thats 100% ligit.

    NB: also this is against ebay's rules so u will probs get a warning off ebay

    but u physically can do it. that anit a problem. and when u phone and activate the product. they ask u a few simple questions.

    u just answer

    only installed on 1 pc
    1st time u have activated the software
    and the sticker is stuck on the side of the machine.

    pretend like its just been bought from the shop, and u can get round it.

    its strictly not legal. but theres nothing stopping you physically doing it.

    also u will never ever in a million years ever get pulled up about this from MS or anybody else.
