@Bob Saget,

 
Thank you for posting the review. I'm glad you are happy with the system and service! I'll share your thoughts about the Windows sticker with the team, the reason why we place it there is because that's been the standard spot and it makes it easier for our support team to tell customers where it is. It also makes it easier especially if you have your system in a computer desk cabinet.
