wasn't sure on the media they gave it to you on. if its in a restore cd, 
then it should be greatly reduced in value (whatever value windows has). 
IMHO it should be illegal to bundle software together like that. isn't 
that kinda what the whole anti-trust thing was about? the license should 
be transferable, right? i haven't read that windows EULA so i wouldn't 
know about that situation.
