I know how software leases work. I'm also familiar with how Microsoft ties the activation code to a particular system - and if I change out enough pieces of hardware, I will have to call Microsoft as the activation code may no longer work. I'm not under the impression I own the software. I do, however, legally own the sticker. It's not against the law for me to sell said sticker - however, I do concede that whoever buys that sticker may have more nefarious uses for it than looking at the pretty hologram. I can't do anything about that.
