   From the US.  My Subject heading was just a literary device to 
dramatise M$'s shenanigans (with the opportunity behind it being 
nevertheless real)!  There may be tricky preconditions to qualify for 
that price though.  (I.e. it wasn't really a sales promo posting).  It 
looks like you have to buy a computer from TigerDirect which otherwise 
would come with Lindows (which would be OK if you are in fact chasing a 
new computer at this time).  Michael's Minutes tells it all...

Best of luck!
