Look, Baha, don't be snarky. I understand what you're saying. The thing is, what you're saying is wrong. > OEM licenses belong the machines not people Software licenses do not belong to machines. > All apple's comes with eproms and Systems... No > single Apple produced without system. Aside from a few Macs (like the Mac SE) that had OS's on their ROM chips, all Apples are produced without an OS. They're all sold *with* an OS (and install disks). If you sell a machine with an OS installed on it, you're supposed to include the install disks. (In other words, you can't use 1 license to install the OS on multiple machines--you're supposed to buy that OS for each machine.) The OP of this thread described a situation where the person did not own the OS. He is not entitled to download it from some sharing site as you advised him to do. I still think his first recourse should be to contact the seller who should have included disks. If the OS wasn't part of the purchase price, then it's up to him to purchase the OS. I catch your point, but you're wrong.
