my source is $144, still way to high.
OK, system builders on the list, what are your sources. Mine has been Buy101
?
I went to Chucks vendor he recommended but did not want to fill out a credit
apt from them to be a partner, I already have a business credit card I use.
FWIW Fry's had a MB/chip and Windows package last week in the add that was

I just looked on NewEgg. XP Pro OEM in a 3 pack works out to $147.65 each.
XP Home OEM works out to $89.98. I am sure that the discounts get better
from Ingram or TechData, and likely much better if you buy in greater bulk.
