Hey everyone...quick question for you.

I purchased an Acer Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit upgrade kit for my 1410 netbook back in February. But I never got around to using it, since I ended up buying a 64-bit version instead.

I now have this upgrade kit just sitting around. Is there anything I can do with it? Can the upgrade be used on a non-Acer machine? Is it re-saleable, or does that violate policy?

Don't want to break the law or anything, but it bugs me that this is just sitting around gathering dust.

Any thoughts? Thanks.

Unless you use it on you 1410, it will continue to gather dust.
