Actually, I have seen dozens of STOP laptops for sale at shows and dealers -
the users don't remove the labels when they sell off the machines. So what
the hell good is the label when everyone ignores it.
In fact, you can usually find some machines on Ebay with the STOP label. AND
they CAN be removed!
