| I need 2000 pro and XP pro to help with my Advent MCSE course. I currently have 2 desk-tops both running XP home. Can anyone suggest a cheap! and easy way of getting hold of the pro versions I need? Many thanks Rob |

| Phil Many thanks for the advice. As I'm 39 years old, I was doubtful I'd get student rates but when I entered Advent as my school/college I was pleasantly surprised to see it on the list! XP pro upgarde purchased for £57. Just need 2000 pro now. I suppose an old business pc might have it on if I could get hold of one? Thanks again. Rob |

| Phil Thanks for the link to Ebay! Looks perfect and the price is nice too! However, is that a full version or does it need an older version of Windows to install on top of? Can you tell from the picture? Someone else has asked a similar question but I don't think the seller has made it clear in their answer. Thanks again. Rob |

| It doesn't look as though it's an Upgrade Disk, but if it were, that shouldn't be a problem, providing you have an old W95 or W98 Disk, as it will simply ask for a qualifying product disk to be inserted, during a "Clean" installation. |

| That wont work I'm afraid, as the key will be for an OEM version of XP Pro and will not work with other versions. Also I am sure that would be in breach of the M$ eula. |
