Installing software many times.

Hi all.

Recently after hearing that a local PC clinic charges £50 just to format and install anti virus I thought that its not a bad business idea and begun doing some research. What I could not find out however is how do they do it legally.

How can they install a copy of windows and anti virus so many times knowing their total is way more than £50? Can anyone tell me about a non-****** solution?

I am aware that OEM versions along with a piece of hardwere are cheaper, but the ones I've seen are not cheep enough - £60+.
"Corporate" - is that the solution? Don't really understand it that much.

I will be very great full to anyone who helps me here. 10x and thanks in advance.

there are all kinds of deals out there. If they allow a confirmed "busy" tech to install it "free", they still benefit on renewals... as over 50% do re-sign and pay after the old one has expired.

My answer responded to the question. I do not believe yours did, true though it may be.
