It looks to be the full retail version, so it should be fine.

Be careful with that purchase! If you'll look closely at the type of license you're supposedly getting, you'll see that particular copy is a volume licensed copy. Which means it probably won't pass the "MS Genuine Windows Validation" test. It'll activate but you may be stuck with an illegal copy.

Volume license keys (activation product keys) are a dime a dozen floating around various so called discount sellers. They're all illegal and won't validate.

I would pass on that purchase and instead go to a legitimate seller like Amazon or NewEgg.

Regards.

I would read this very carefully if I were you. It is the last part of the sales statement, and I would class it as the "fine print".
