A new copy of Windows XP Professional is $269.99 at Amazon.com (the upgrade
version is $179.99).

And if it comes with OpenOffice, consider that you saved yourself the $412.99 it
would cost you on Amazon.com for a new copy of Office 2003 Professional (which,
by the way includes neither FrontPage '03, which costs another $165.99, nor
OneNote, which costs an additional $167.99).

And Micro$chmuck thinks they have a better ROI? Which is better ROI -- $1,088
(which would be the cost of the above plus 7% Sales Tax) or $45?
