I found a source, on eBay, for Windows XP Tablet 2005 W/SP2 edition. And, I
already have all the XP drivers for my machine. Back to the best OS MS ever
produced.

Windows XP Tablet 2005 edition is only available as an OEM.
If this copy was installed and activated previously, you will
not be able to activate it on different hardware. You may
just be buying a nice 'coaster'.

Oh, bullshit. If 120 days have past since the last activation, it will
activate on line, no problem. If not, a little white lie will do just
fine when using phone activation.

It is OEM, from a system builder, much like the OEM Vista Business I bought
for the same tablet PC.

Don't pay any attention to Carey. He thinks it's his mission to scare
people into buying Windows that they don't need.

Don't pay any attention to Two-Face Alias. On the one face, it will
knife anyone in the back that tries to help someone and runs with the
insane crowd in the NG. And on the other face, it can't help anyone and
it needs help itself at an asylum.

For a product that "sucks big time" you sure love to tell everyone about it
day after day. So in reality you like Vista.
