even with an OEM computer, you can get a copy of a windows install disk and use the windows license number that came with your OEM computer...

Very true. But you still have to get the disk to install it...

you can download those from several sources. Or talk to you local white box computer dealer and tell them you have the number, but a damaged disk and you need a replacement disk.

Yeah, you could do that too...but it's still more work than having one sent w/your computer.

depends on how often you are at the local computer shop...

That's very true...I'm not there very often..I'm pretty much the local shop.

so why do you need a copy of windows?

TehAdministratorman
I didn't say I needed a copy...we were discussing the fact that you get charged extra to get a CD with a new computer....
