1) what version of Windows XP (Pro 32-bit, Pro 64-bit, Home, MCE, and retail or OEM)?

2) do you want an ironclad legit license?

What is cheapest? I'd also prefer 32 bit, thanks.

No offense, but surely you know that WinXP Home Edition is the cheapest, and that OEM is the cheapest variant of WinXP Home. As far as up-front cost goes, that is.

I can't believe I just posted that, I wasn't thinking when I wrote that, but I meant where can I buy it for cheap?

Cheap and legit? Newegg or Mwave or ZZF come to mind. I mean, what's your time worth? $15 per hour? More? Don't throw too much of it away, trying to get WinXP Home OEM for $75 instead of $85. Just order your goodies and get it over with. :D

:) <-- your face as you think of your stuff on its way

Ditto to that

If someone is selling below the going street price,
then there may be a problem with the software.
