I'm considering the purchase of a 2011 13" Macbook Pro, and have been scouring ebay for deals.
2 questions:
1. How do so many sellers get away with including the Adobe CS6 suite and/or Office 2011 preinstalled (no install media included)? Seems that over half of them advertise this on their auctions. Obviously, this is against ebay policies and is software piracy, but it still seems to persist.
2. How do so many sellers get away with including an install of OS 10.8 on these computers? They shipped with either 10.6 or 10.7 originally, and the 10.8 will go away the next time people erase the drive. I guess people just don't understand that the 10.8 install is connected with their app store account.
anyway, that is all.
