I purchased a 4 pack of OEM XP Pro for roughly $360 about a year ago
through a local supplier. Purchase 3 and they threw in a 4th.
They were individually shrink wrapped and came with the MS official
logo to go on/in each machine. (so called requirement)

However as they are pre SP-1 it requires *OVER* 100 megs of downloads
to bring them up-to-date if I have to do a reinstall. As I recall,
with the SP-1 update it's close to 140 megs. How'd you like to do
that on a dial up connection?

Not sure if my original post made it to the group (I never saw it, but
that doesn't necessarily mean it didn't get posted). Just in case it
didn't:
