I need to get an XP disc with 2 x licences to sort the kids horrible Linux laptops out.

Any links to a cheap source please. (Legal of course)

Don't be tight. Just throw the computers away and buy the kids new ones

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!

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.

Darren, I would suggest ebay tbh, If your only after XP you can pick some bargains up, Just make sure comes with the COA
