Lightbulb buy some hardware

you can get the xp os cheap at many online site by buying one hunk of hardware of you choice ie new keyboard, more ram, new mouse... I got XP pro full for $130 in december and upgraded my ram at the same time. check www.pricewatch.com for latest prices.

Cool

www.newegg.com $140.00 and www.mwave.com $142.00 for XP Pro OEM. Must be purchased with hardware.

Talking maybe or may not be cheap

I can get XP Home for 120 and pro for 175. It's not that cheap but I don't have to buy hardware.
