I was told.
There was XP Pro sp2 $79.99!!!!! With another CD for $5.99 & postage it came to $94.93. For us in the UK an approximation is just to halve the numbers.
The CD's are here, the XP CD is a holographic M$ one, not an oem type. The CD comes with a product key of course but no pretty box.
It just overwrote my iffy copy with a real copy which then registered itself.
So keep your eyes open, i'm not the only person to get a reasonably priced
OS.

And the problem might be that they are selling copies of xp with a bulk/corporate licence, which is all well and good until they hit the magic number, at which point genuine advantage (or whatever it's called) starts telling everyone they have a non legit copy.
This has happened to several people I know that have got cheap copies
