| 619268 | 2007-12-09 00:05:00 | Uhm.... here are the answers to various interpretation of your question: 1) You can buy XP Pro from DSE, surely? 2) You need to get Bootcamp to run XP from a Mac Cheers :) |

| 619271 | 2007-12-10 22:08:00 | Had a look but how can I tell if it's not been used? DSE doesn't sell it. Any other ideas? |

| 619272 | 2007-12-10 22:16:00 | The shop down the road, sells the OEM version of Pro for $236.81, (with conditions), but not much use if youre not in Mt Eden, and dont have a credit card or something to pay for it online. BUT, you probably have to buy some hardware to get it. |

| 619273 | 2007-12-10 22:21:00 | Doesn't the piece of hardware need to be the bit that runs xp? $236 for a 5 year old piece of software that is still not legal (OEM) is really really rubbish. |

| 619274 | 2007-12-10 22:35:00 | No it can be anything hardware, just as long as its hardware. OEM does the same as the retail, the only diff is it usually gets installed on systems u buy. |
