I've contacted them via e-mail. Basically they said I had to buy a licence to complete the registration. They said that MS is OK with them to ship the PC out without the licence.

Doesn't sound right to me, and if that's the case, then they have been very misleading on their website.

It says "W98SE PRELOADED"

>>Is it LEGAL for a company to sell a New PC with Windows 98 PRE-LOADED (ie Without a Product Key being entered yet) and not supply a licence with it?

>>I had a New PC and when I started it up it prompted for licence agreement and product key entry, but the company never supplied a licence with it, and advised me I need to purchase one seperatly!! Can a company ship you a PC with win98 and no licence? I'm confused....
