Can anyone recommend a good (cheap) place to buy an OEM version of Windown XP Pro?

Thanks,
Joe

Actually they're not allowed to sell the OEM version.  What they did was give you a free copy of XP with the purchase of that (very expensive, I'm sure) pen. ;D

Yeah I'm familiar with the need for the OS to be sold with hardware. This often takes the form of a broken HD or motherboard.

I found it for $102.00 + 6.00 shipping.  Seems like a pretty good deal.  Has anyone seen it cheaper before i place my order?

The $102 price was for a full OEM version of XP pro.

I don't have the link handy right now.  I can post it tonight after work.
A Google search for OEM Windows XP will bring up listings from some of the price comparison sites.
