There was no outer box. OEM units come in plastic sacks. 
 
But it did say Sony on the unit itself. And the BIOS reported Sony. 
And Win2K reported Sony. 
 
There is no doubt that was a Sony unit. Yet Sony disowned it. They 
claimed because it was an OEM unit, they did not have any 
responsibility for it. In fact there wasn't even a model number for it 
anywhere on the Sony database. 
 
However once Sony put its name on it and especially once it programmed 
the firmware, it became a Sony branded unit, regardless of its OEM 
history.
