Hey RFD,

I'm looking to buy the Small Business Server 2003 (with 5 CALS, which I believe is standard)...Other than buying from Microsoft, are there any other cheap BUT trusted alternatives?

I really don't want to end up with a pirated copy, the cheapest I've seen is at NCIX...

Microsoft says it's around $600 (on their website [URL="http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/sbs/howtobuy/pricing.mspx"] (http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=21293&vpn=T72-01849&manufacture=Microsoft))

Anyone know any other places?


p.s - can you use Office Home and Student 2007 for commercial purposes?

I pricematched one at NCIX with Direct Canada, it was around what you are paying. Came with cds and a dvd.

I doubt the student and teacher edition is legit.

I got it from Insight for $499 a few weeks ago. You need to talk to a rep and make them give it to you at that price :)
