I notice that I am able to buy Windows XP pro/home etc etc in many places. From shops aswell as online. But can i get Mac OS anywhere? Or does it only come pre-installed on Mac machines :( ?

Been looking out for it for a while now but haven't had any luck....

If anyone could help me out as to where and if it is available that would be great.

Thanks alot,
craig :)

PS. I know what you're thinking....I'm looking for a legit place if this is one to but it from...

You can get it at a local Fry's or www.newegg.com. They sell for pretty cheap. Got mine for $127.99 plus tax.

If you want a UK seller you will need to look throught the results as it is a web wide search.

£88.12 inc VAT from dabs uk is the best I've seen. I think it is on offer just now

only way u'll get this cheaper is by using an educational discount on the main apple site , or alternatively have a look on ebay.co.uk

good luck
