Also, Anyone here heard about Networking the computers together?
This way one computer can have xp on it and the others can have
different os on it. Then, all the computers can access each other.
And It is legal and not against Microsoft Eula.
Heard of? Sure. Believed? Not since I was very young and naive.

"Buy one, get one free" sales offers have been nothing but sucker
bait from time immemorial. No merchant is going to make such an offer
unless the price of the single item has been "adjusted" to cover the
cost of the second, purportedly "free" item.
What about the times Walmat reduces the price? At least here in the
U.S. I have seen it done. They do lose money but get more sells.
So the actual they gain money.
That may be.
But when you suggest 'ignoring the "license for one only"
requirement', it sounds like you are suggesting illegal installation
on a second computer.

No, even then, if there is a promotional price, the retailer bills the
supplier for the difference! It's commercial blackmail!

Rifleman,
That maybe so in the U.K.
Does not mean that in the U.S. but I could be wrong.
We laws to stop that type of pratice here.
Only time it would go on sale if the supplier discounted it.
Or a closeout if they no longer want to sell it-then the retailer
looses. Like microsoft selling a buch of xp to school for a reduce
price, then then reduce price is passed on to the students & teachers.
I could be wrong. Any U.S. Suppliers care to respond to this post.
