Any channel to buy Windows 8 stickers?

#1 Post by houndkr » Mon Dec 24, 2012 12:58 am

I know it may sound stupid, but i really like those OEM stickers on my laptops. It kind of tells me what the laptop is capable of, and "clean" stickers sort of give computers a well-managed look.

Recently I upgraded my X201t and X120e to Windows 8 Pro, and now I want to replace the Windows 7 stickers to Windows 8 Pro sticker. So far I couldn't find any place that sells those stickers, however. Do you know of any place I could look up?

Interesting. Sorry I can't be of any help. I'm just the opposite, I go out of my way to get rid of the stickers and any sign of their existence as fast as I can.

I'm also dead against that rubbish, but if you insist: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Microsoft-Windo ... 0837307165

Thanks for the reply...but it doesn't seem to be the genuine one: the genuine sticker looks more like a classic windows sticker... its layout somewhat resembles Pentium M sticker. Logo on top, name on bottom.

I can understand where the others are coming from, but when, and if, you decide to ever sell a TP, those stickers can be useful. Most don't apply them back if they ever remove them, so it's something to look for when shopping for a second-hand PC; especially those stickers which indicate discrete graphics.
