"Does Microsoft sell XP Personal -> XP Professional upgrade licenses at a reasonable cost?"
I was in Best Buy this evening. There are little pads of mail in upgrade offers for $75 to upgrade from Windows XP Home Edition to Professional Edition, I think with the purchase of a desktop system. That's better than the extra $100 the professional edition costs regular. It appeared to be a Microsoft offer as opposed to specific to Best Buy. Good representation of Athlon/Duron laptops. Desktops included 4 or 5 Athlon choices, but I didn't see any Athlon XP systems for sale.

Re: I didn't see any Athlon XP systems for sale
Athlon XPs seem to be selling out whenever they hit the shelves.


The big question is: Is because they only received a few units, or are they moving hundreds?

We may never know, since small shop and foreign sales appear to have been dominating total XP units lately.

The fact that we continue to see ads for the Athlon XPs is encouraging - they couldn't be getting co-op unless they were ordering a fair number of units.
