780 USFF w/ No OS Sticker
Does anyone know why the 780 USFF does not come with a Windows License sticker on the outside? I have never come across a new pc running Windows OS that did not have a Windoes OS sticker on the outside. If anyone has an answer for this then please reply. Thanks!

What is a 780 usff? That is not a model name that I recognize. Nowadays computers have stickers in various locations. Some laptops have it inside the battery compartment and some desktops have it behind doors, on the sides, on the front or back or even inside.

It is a Dell Optiplex 780 Ultra Small Form Factor (USFF). The sticker is no where to be found and I have taken one of them completely apart. It just seems odd to not have a COA sticker or media with the pc that has the license on it. I am worried about Microsoft when we are getting ready to send out 100's of these this year.

Tim - Thank you so much. I would never have guessed that it would be some type of pull out tab. The pull out tab makes it easy to get the information that we need for supporting and documentation purposes. Thanks again!

mattbatts - The Windows COA and other regulatory information is located on a slide out label carrier that's located on the top (when the system is in a tower orientation) and rear of the system. The pull out tab is located just above the ethernet port. There's a graphic of the carrier under figure 2 on the following link:
