Sorry if this is viewed as spam, but I thought some might be interested.
I actually bought one of these used systems for the family earlier this year. It looks like brand new, and has been working great (ymmv though).
I figured the price was pretty good considering you get a M$ license. Shipping from Toronto was free.
To take advantage of this you will need my employee number (020842).
If you'd rather see the site for new equipment, which also has "family and friends" offers. Let me know.
And no, I don't make any money or get any credit if you avail yourself of this offer. ;-)
