Yes, not free, but much cheaper then retail. But it must be a non peripheral item. ie not printers, scanners etc. It must be a device directly attached to the system that is integral to it's operation, ie a mouse :)

No way . I don't even buy hardware from chainstores . (Well I wouldn't even if I didn't get them from myself) .
You get what you pay for . . . . . .
Took my sons rubbish TV back to the Warehouse after it died after 3 months and insisted they refund me . They were insisting on "policy to repair it as its over 1 month old) . I won and went off and replaced it with a SOny for him . Cost more but I expect it to last longer than 3 months .
Same with PC stuff .

363506 2005-06-13 09:49:00 Maybe I should update that website (actually I hired someone to do it, but I keep distracting him by teaching him to fix computers and have started him on a crash course in networking).

Anyhow, Can't say I have ever charged anyone the website listed prices for OEM Xp, Tend to put together a package price.

Oh yeah, A mouse doesn't count, its a perpherial same as a printer, the component has to be internal.....Like an IDE cable...... :D
