Just like the title says.

PM me with a price if you've got a legit copy.

I believe (correct me if I'm wrong), that there are 2 versions of Windows XP pro. Original and XP-64 bit. The link was for a normal version of XP-pro.

^^ The major differentiator between 32-bit and 64-bit Windows is in memory support. Currently, 32-bit Windows is capable of supporting up to 4 GB of system memory, with up to 2 GB of dedicated memory per process. Windows XP 64-Bit Edition will currently support up to 16 GB of RAM, with the potential to support up to 16 TB of virtual memory as hardware capabilities and memory sizes grow.

Don't ask me how i know...I was lost when i read it myself.
Just buy the 32bit and you'll be fine.

XP will use 4 GB of RAM, but at least one gig is reserved for the kernel. Hence why it appears XP 32 bit only recognizes 3 GB of ram.

I have a legit x64 Pro XP if anyone else needs it. Mine is a Servers edition though.

I would be interested in picking up a copy too. However, there is no way for me to verify that the key is actually legit and one of you havent burned the disc and kept the key.

You have trust issues. That is easily cured by paying retail price at a store.

Besides, XP can only be activated on one machine at a time. If it has been activated recently, you might have to call the MS 1-800 number to activate. I've never had a problem with them, and I have owned many copies of XP over the years.
