Oh please!
saunter on over to MSFN.ORG look around the forums and you'll find the files required to make an OEM version of the OS with the OEM key and everything! Goodness why do I keep reading this crap all the time! educate yourself people, you talk about being smarter than the average user, show it!
I've been doing this for my customers for years!!! it's not hard, it's not rocket science, all the hard work has been done for you, all you have to do is get a windows disk Home or Pro add the correct files, use the OEM key or the key on your computer case (most of the time) and burn! simple! sh*t it takes longer to cook a good meal than to get an OEM copy of XP working.
The same goes for the guy who ended up installing ubuntu server on a HP server machine, cry me a river, if you knew your sh*t you'd have burnt a disk with the sata drivers included and moved on instead of crying about how f*ck*d up it was, XP is over 5 years old! so learn to work with it.
Don't get me wrong I'm not overly enthusiastic about XP (heh ask some of the people I've worked with) but you learn to work with the tools your given, I've already tried the switch to linux, I learnt I could do it but for my games!, plus the video driver support sucks! ATI NVIDIA I'm referring to you people! and Game designers Please start supporting Linux it'd make a heck of a lot of people happy, Wine and Cedega just don't cut it for me!!!
Sry just my $0.02
