Correct. The seller should have included the original bundled
software -- ALL the bundled software, not just the OS.
Gee that's funny the Apple reseller and repair depot down the road
from me. (I'll no mention the name) Sells used Apple's all day long
with a system on them and that's all, no disc's of any kind, so
you're saying an Apple authorized reseller is going to get raided by
the computer police?
Legally, yes they should include a copy of the media with the
computer. And AFAIK that's required by the authorized reseller
dealio.
Does Apple actively pursue all this? No, not currently. And that
does NOT make it acceptable to pirate.
