<< ummm its $1,025 for the preorder...i just bought a toshiba laptop im glad it comes with $25 option to upgrade to XP >>



$1025 for the O/S? Are they on crack?!?! Obviously it's a typing error, becaus eXP shoudl be cheaper (the home ed. anyway), than anyother MS O/S to debut, besically because when you pay at compusa, that won't be the last time... The Pro Ed. I've heard is just a one time fee, like all their old o/s', so it might be a little higher, but definitely not $1025....

 

[frizzlefry]

I remembered somwhere that Windows XP home edition should only be around $125. An extra zero mayhaps?

 

[munkey1]

Its definetly a typo, they have XP home upgrade advertised for $99 in the flyer. or the whole thing for 199.

According to the mail I got, the presale starts on 9/2. So I wouldn't really pay attention to any pricing on the site before then.

If you get a free plane ticket then it would totally be worth it.. Who do you think they tickets are from? Southwest? United... Probably limited to the continental US, if not it's llike 100 bucks for a ticket to Hawaii. damn sweet.

 

[ksherman]

that price has got to be a joke or a missprint or ill never upgrade from 98SE

 

[topdog]

its more than 100.00 a Ticket from NYC

 

[LoneWolf1]

The pricing is intensional, not to mention same as the release date 10 25 .01. Take a loook at this thread for the reasoning behind it.

 

[aperry]

Did anyone else notice that the second item under In-Store Offers says "$10 off Widows XP Coupon"?

Does that mean I have to die for my wife to collect on the coupon?

 

[xsquid]

Don't let my old lady see that aperry.

<< Who do you think they tickets are from? >>

[ksherman]
