I was just looking around Ebay and I ran across them..look under software..The vendors come and go..you get good deals especially if you are academic in any way..Now mine were upgrades although I was told by a friend, that they will do a clean install too if you have a 98 disk to stick in so it can read it..I don't know that part for sure..but they were/are authentic MS software.. I should know I have bought enough of it over the years..grin..--Phyllis
