    If you're not including a CD, isn't it piracy? Pirated version of Office is not worth $650...

    I am pretty sure its not piracy because it has a 3 user license.

    laptops never really hold the value very well especially since they become second hand. However Macbooks seem to hold pretty well.

    If a new one is going for $1400 they your looking at no more than $1k imo probably less unless your lucky. Whack it on ebay and see what you get and just put a minimum in for precaution.

    As for the office thing im pretty sure that you are only allowed to install it on 3 machines which you own or is in your house old. You cant just pass it onto your mate to use one of your licenses. Dont quote me on that but im pretty sure its somthing like that.

    Are you including the COA with Office? If not, it's not legitimate.

    That seems a bit high IMO. I'm always very hesitant to buy used computers though.

    Eh, i've never received a cd for the software on my laptops, is that illegal? All ie ver get is that crappy backup partition
    Fantastic. The project manager is inspired.
