if i ever get a hold of xp then i might be able to tell you but it works ok as a sat card for viewing purposes on my pentium 3, 450mhz with 640 megs of ram.
Rolf i have an original xp back up but it aint got a serial number as guy didnt want to give me it, quite understandable
my mate found this site and he has purchased from it and received the goods so it appears genuine enough and it is sooooooo cheap its almost hard to believe, only thing is the software takes about 6 weeks to be delivered and its oem so only one installation on one machine type of thing, install on another hard drive and deactivate the first a bit like some some anti virus software that you need a multi licence for, only thing is you dont get no manual or fancy box and the software comes from eastern europe or somewhere but some example prices.
Windows Xp PRO - $50 thats about 30 pounds (you save $220)
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 enterprise edition $200 (you save $1800) yes thats a retail price of $2000
or what about this one that takes the biscuit
Windows server 2003 for $200 - retail price is $3999 (saving of $3799)
so this is really the cheapest i recon that is out there. I think maybe i should get 2 copies of windows xp pro
perhaps you may like to add this bit to buying guide rolf as i got carried away when i was typing.
