Greetings --
Certainly the WinXP Home license is still "valid," but only if
used on the PC with which it was purchased.
OEM versions are _permanently_ bound to the first PC on which they
are installed. An OEM license, once installed, is not legally
transferable to another computer under any circumstances.
