Have you seen: http://www.microsoft.com/education/?id=DonatedComputers

"If you feel it is in the best interest of your school to accept the donated PCs, make sure that the hardware donation includes the original operating system software. Keeping the operating system with the PC is not just a great benefit - it is a legal requirement."

According of the way Microsoft thinks. Even if there was such a requirement it would be on the *doner* anyway.

Leave kebabs out of this ;)

Weeeeel, M$ want to skewer your cash anyway! We could meat them halfway, but then, maybe not. (sorry !)
