A network administrator gave me a laptop abandoned by a former employee.

It runs under W2K.

How do I--legally--change the OS registration name to myself?

Use regedit.

Navigate to;
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion
and edit the Reg_Sz strings:

"RegisteredOrganization"
"RegisteredOwner"
