Windows XP 64

This is a discussion about Windows XP 64 in the Windows Software category; I have heard rumors that the 64 bit flavor of XP will be OEM only, meaning you wont be able to purchase just the OS. Anyone heard anything to the contrary? Jeff.

www.microdirect.co.uk will sell OEM versions. You just have to buy some hardware with it to satisfy the legal crap.
 
BTW XP 64 seems to work much better then any other microsponge OS - i'm impressed
Obviously they will have to add in all of the obselecence bugs for the retail release ;-)
