  The obvious one - it's a legitimate copy installed on an
  existing secondary machine that I use for my other hamming
  stuff - packet and APRS.   I really do not relish buying yet
  another copy of XP (I already have 2 on essential machines) and
  wrestling it onto a 10 year old PC even though I know that
  the iMic will work perfectly under XP.  Buying a newer machine
  for that application is out of the question.

  My OS of choice was IBM's OS/2 in its OEM version - eCommstation -
  but I could no longer get essential programs which had been
  upgraded for MS 32-bit OS to run on OS/2 even under an emulator.
