[muglo] Re: WINDOWS XP

Hi,
Each Windows XP (Home) is one license for one computer. You would have to
get Pro, a subscription or multi-license copy. You will have to go to
Microsoft to get your windows activated. Windows XP Pro I believe is
different than home version but cost more. I have never used Pro so I am
not sure about the activation bit. The cheapest I have seen is on Tiger
Direct (tigerdirect.ca)
Hope that helps
Thom
