selling my copy of Vista Business

Hello I bought a copy of Vista Business Full Copy when vista first came out.
I installed it on one of my computers and did not like it at all. A lot of
other programs I used dident work well or at all with vista. so I formated
the drive and reinstall xp. now I would like it sell the full copy. What are
the copy wright, can I do this? I tryed to return it to the store they would
not take it back being opened. I was told bye someone that you can only
install vista 3 time before having to pay a fee?

1. Can I sell my copy ?
2. only install 3 times true of false

thanks Shawn E

Ubuntu isn't for the benefit of the OP. It's for the benefit of YOU, the
Ubuntu Marketing Department. Why does the OP want to Dumb-Down his computer
by going with Ubuntu? He is better off using XP instead of Vista.

Ubuntu is for propeller heads who want to tinker with an OS and not get
anything done! Well, with Ubuntu I guess he could just surf the net and
maybe write a document, but that's about it!!

For real processing the OP needs XP !

Because VMS only runs on Alpha chips?

Um, you brought it up. Then, of course, you reveal how little you know
about Ubuntu but what else is new?
