Office XP Sales dilemma


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi everyone,

Looking forward to life on the Forum...

I wonder if you can help :

I have recently changed jobs. At my last school (I'm a teacher), I was given a copy of Office XP Standard to install on my PC. The discs I have have a licence which is for 'any user'

At my new school, I have been given a copy of Office 2003.

My question is this -

I am thinking of selling the Office XP Standard discs on Ebay - they are fetching over £50 at the moment. Am I doing anything illegal ? Will the product key be registered to my old school and leave the buyer with problems ? Does the product key unlock the product only, or do Microsoft keep a log of who has it on their system for the licence holder ?

Iam genuinely unsure and don't want to do anything illegal, so I thought I would check

Your help would be much appreciated

:yes:

If the disk is in its original packaging with the COA and is NOT an OEM version.. then there isnt anything wrong with it... if it is a burned CD and you dont have the COA.... then it is illegal
