I have around 30 windows 7 pro COAs (used to work in a pc repair shop, pulled the COAs on every dead pc that came through). Most of them are from dells, but I haven't had an issue activating on custom pcs. If anyone wants one, let me know

I'd prob take one, but I'm not building a PC for another year or so, so if it won't work by then with whatever this coming enforcement is, someone else should take it.

Sent one anyway. Still have plenty left

If you have a spare, that'd be amazing! Planning my new build for early next year :)

If you have a spare still, I’d take one. Got a laptop from the e-waste pile at work and was going to clean it up for a family member.

DM’d you, what kind of laptop out of curiosity?

Latitude 7280. They pull the ram and m2 from it. 16gb ram and a new drive are cheap for that thing. New batteries are around $80. They are great daily drivers.

I would appreciate one if you would be so kind. :)

Could you please send me a key as well? My co-worker just asked where to get a cheap key, I'm sure that a free one will make her happy. :)

Got any left? I could use one of those too.
