This is fine with me...that is a standard EULA. As
part of the sale, he
would remove SeeYou from his PC. Since he did not
receive a physical disc
(it is a download), he would give me the license key
specific to one user.

A license is personal and not transferable; try to
borrow or buy someone else's driver's license. Read
your agreement with Microsoft; read his agreement with
SeeYou.

A Driver's license is a totally different issue and not related here. Go
buy MS and you can transfer the license.

That is not true. MS operating system retail licenses (not to be
confused with OEM licenses) require you to get an activation from MS,
usually over the Internet. This license is not transferable. It
enables you to move it from one PC to another but only by getting
another activation from MS, which they are not obligated to provide if
they feel you are abusing the license.

OEM licenses are not transferable, period!
