| Where to buy "Windows 7" sticker (legit)
I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can pick up a Windows 7 sticker for my laptop. I thought the W7 package I picked up (legit) would include a sticker inside the case but nope, it just has the disc and manual. Not looking for an eBay knockoff either, thanks. It seems that all computers and laptops just have them stuck on from the factory, but SOMEONE out there (possibly someone who works in a computer store) must have a roll of these stickers.
If you have one kicking around (brand new and unstuck obviously  ) please let me know as well.
Long story short, I upgraded my laptop (came with XP) to W7, but the laptop obviously came with a XP sticker attached to the case. And yes it bugs me lolz.

Technically you cannot buy COA stickers.. These can only be purchased when getting a new system.. Technically you can only buy retail copies or upgrade copies...

I think you guys are misunderstanding what I'm looking for.  Geez. I do have a legit copy of W7, thank you very much.
I'm not looking for the sticker with the wavy silver stripe and the product key, which would obviously come with a PC that came with W7 installed. I'm just looking for the little sticker you see on top by the keyboard that says "Windows 7" with the cute little logo.  Something similar to the "Intel Inside" sticker you used to get with your CPU in the box.

^ I'm hoping for a solution that doesn't cost $5 after shipping or something stupid.

Try retailers like ncix or anitec and see I'd they have any. Doubtful though since only major manufacturers get them ie Dell HP etc. But if you were this picky you'd think $5 would be worth it. Posted via RS Mobile |

you must be like one of those people that throws a shit load of stickers on their car
HKS + 5 HP
Mugen + 5 HP
And I can see when your craigslist ad comes up to sell your laptop it will say
"modded win7 sticker" CPU changes from 2.2 to 2.6 |
