XP Home OEM - £77
XP Home Upgrade - £89

If ordering the OEM, conditions state that you are purchasing to supply with a system (or something like that)

I see SCAN are cheaper, but here the postage is less - do the maths, I can't be bothered.

Not entirely but it's now on a sliding scale

Carriage:-
We now have introduced a sliding carriage charge dependent on the number and weight class of items ordered. The minimum carriage charge for items has been reduced from £10.00 (ex vat) to £7.00 (ex vat) for a next day (from date of despatch) insured service.

That's alright for next day I suppose. But for some reason whenever I get the urge to order new stuff it's always 11.30pm on a friday night. Makes it damn annoying lol.
