My bad, I forgot to REFRESH... please accept my apology.

I can not tell you if your right or wrong.. that would spoil the POLL.

So unless you read the same Counterfeit blog I did, it should be hard to tell the difference... (the color is not a clue).

The one on the right is a fake, the label hasn't been put on right. Just look at the gap in the center of the disk. Also the edges around the disk are not equal all the way around, some have bigger gaps than other and some are near overlapping.

After checking my Vista original its also clear that the windows hologram and genuine hologram are facing the wrong way the windows logo should be about 330 degrees of the top white label.

I was looking for spelling and other factors. I can say they both look the same overall. They both look great. The placement of the sticker is also what got me thinking its the fake.

100% correct.... and the in BOLD makes it very easy to tell . also part of the hologram is missing.."small circles" on right hand side of FAKE..

I picked the right one, looks as though the colours are a little bit off
