Strictly speaking, you shouldn't be buying OEM, but I can't see aria refusing the order :eek:

Why? I might have a small PC building business you don't know about...;) I've bought OEM lots of times in the past anyway. :)

Are you joking? I only bought them 6 months ago! :eek: You live and learn...There's so many things I can't install with Linux and the kids end up using the PCs in my office, which is why I want this done!

When buying OEM just buy a SATA cable or a mouse for each license you buy to satisfy the OEM license! Ie a part that allows the PC to be operated.

I have some software (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&item=230335517270), brand new, sealed & fully legal, if you're interested. The price could be negotiable (within reason).

Unless £200 is coming off, then I don't think I'll be buying!

Unfortunately no, it normally retails over £300. A bargain at £245 IMO. :D

Nice try. ;) I'm about to see how badly he wants a new deckstand, and how buoyant the market for Office 2007 is. :D :D :D

For a straight swap I'd expect an ultimax with all the trimmings :D OR a CM200USB :D

Ah. :( Looks like I'll have to up my offer to a Giraffe, and a slightly used KAM1500. :D :D :D

Most XP Products will be sold seperately, unless you are a company looking to buy 50 licences.
