Anyone can buy an OEM version of XP Pro single pack with hardware from Mwave for $130.90 or without hardware for $137.00 & the 3 pack for $389 & I'm sure they're cheaper places to buy it.
When you consider that I buy the single pack and I have a modest markup on all of my products, the actual price I pay is well within the game. When you relate costs to your customer to others, don't you quote your retail price? My markup is thin, but it is intact.
