My Acer laptop has died on me and I'm not going to bother repairing it as I'm due to build a new PC on payday. I was planning on buying a Windows 7 copy for the new build but I was thinking, can I now use the windows license from the laptop on the new build if I can get hold of a CD copy of XP?

It means I could then wait until I start college in September and get a discounted Windows 7 upgrade.
