I don't expect the list price. I just want my cost - back. --- You know, it's illegal for me to sell it to a third party. Microsoft maintains rights over the sale or transfer. I don't want it. What I do want is the Win32 source code. So, to re-cap, I want a refund on the Win32 OS I do not use and do not want, and do want the source code so that the OS I do use can run those Win32 programs! :) --- And no Gerald, Solaris doesn't work the same way. You can buy a box from Sun w/o an OS should you want to run Sparc Linux, BSD or older Solaris. But, Solaris is free now, so most people would opt for the preloaded Solaris. Sun also sells that cool PCi card that runs Windows, but has the good sense to not bundle Windows with the card, in the event that the customer wants to run something else, or already <cough> has Windows. -JCJ
