    Thought some of you may have experience with this.

    I have a copy of Windows Office 2003 Professional - authentic hologram discs with real product key - that I no longer use. Is it legal to sell this, say on eBay? I've looked at several things and am getting conflicting info. I do see many copies on eBay - though most of them are new. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Read the license.

    If it came preinstalled on your computer, then probably not (unless you're selling it with the computer). Otherwise, probably yes.
