Many folks have posted to this newsgroup have been "scammed"
by an "offer to good to be true". All I can say is you take your chances
and if you encounter a problem (i.e. Product Key does not work), you
are on your own. That particular website offers no "contact information"
so that should raise a huge "red flag". Chances are high you'll end
up with an expensive "coaster" and have zero recourse. The site also
claims the software is "shipped from Eastern Europe" so you may
get Windows XP written in Polish with English subtitles.
