My Vista Ultimate counterfeit?

[Gonso]

Actually, there's a piece of tape placed across the middle, so I can't tell. Thanks for the help.

As far as calling MS, maybe if it comes to that. Looking closer at his ebay feedback, he's purchasing (whole) retail Vista kits himself via auctions, even as he's selling individual discs. I'll drop the guy a note and see what he says when I ask for the COA.
