Where can I buy one retail DVD and 4 licenses?

[Nigel Molesworth]

I'm going to the US in two weeks, so I thought I would wait until then
to buy Vista Home Premium for all my home computers. About $220 in
Costco, about £220 on Amazon UK!

After reading the potential problems with upgrade and OEM versions,
I've decided to go for the full retail version. However, I need one
DVD, but a total of 4 licenses. The OEM version is available in a
multi-pack, what about the retail?

BTW, I don't want to go for the Ultimate + 2 Premium upgrades.

Retail versions of Vista are only sold singularly.
You would need to purchase four "boxed" copies.

I think you missed the last line of his post.
Otherwise it would possibly be a very good option.

Seems a bit of a waste

A few days ago WVHP said my grace period had expired, & prompted me to
buy a license online. Of course, I forgot to make a note of the site.

Any ideas?

Found it (I expired my laptop) <www.microsoft.com/addlicense/>
although they are the same price as a full retail pack!
