[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1229755, member: 46727"] The point harry was making is a valid one. Unfortunately, many folks buy a used machine and do not receive the install disks nor any of the disks that pertain to the software which is on the machine. Without the original disks and product keys, the software can not be validated as genuine. However, I'll leave that up to you and your conscience to resolve. You do need a set of install disks though to do any kind of trouble shooting or repairs to the hard drive if they're needed. It's a good idea then to buy a Snow Leopard DVD ($29) from Apple or Best Buy. The Windows 7 DVD runs about $99 from NewEgg or Amazon. That's for the OEM system builder's version of Windows 7 Home Premium. [/QUOTE]
