I called M$ and that's exactly what they said, Jim. OEM or UA/SA only.

Hold the phone...not all versions are downgradeable according to this
document which comes as a surprise to me.
If you purchase Windows XP off the shelf as a consumer(FPP/MLP) the way this
reads is that you CAN'T downgrade.
You would need an OEM version, UA/SA or be enrolled in the Select or open
license agreement to do it.

That's what I need. I couldn't find that information on the Microsoft Web
site.

not the actual key but you have downgrade rights when you buy WinXP Pro.
You can legally run Windows 2000.
