207677 2004-01-15 09:58:00 Greetings all,
I need to get XP Pro full version, and I have heard that if you can get it cheaper if you buy an oem version or if you buy it with a major piece of hardware, is this true, and what sort of price are we looking at.

Any help would be apreciated

207681 2004-01-15 10:11:00 $185 from Dick Smith for XP Pro Upgrade at Academic Pricing. All you need is a win 98 disk to pop in the tray when asked, and a student/teacher to assist with purchase ...

Not all are so lenient however...
