Hello Nimrod

The OEM windows 7, which you got along with your Lenovo laptop, cannot be used in any other laptop or computer.

Even if you stop using your Lenovo laptop, you simply cannot use the windows in any other machine.

That OEM license belongs to the original machine. If due to any reason the computer dies, the license dies with it!

You can sell the laptop along with the OEM Windows 7 to anyone.

Advice: You should plan on buying a desktop which comes with an OEM license.

Hope this helps!
