2003 server for 50 bucks?

Ya right...

Who can buy this and tell me what's the catch... or rather, who can find the small print for the rip-off... maybe all oem's are fully working 30 day trials???

    Those are pirated versions, grey-market. It's a total scam.

    Yeah, read the "FAQ" - A few key gems:

    And one question that is suspiciously absent:

    Is this legal?

    Answer: No.

    I kinda knew that - but I have never actually ran across a convincing site that was a scam - this one is too obvious!

    If they priced the products only 50 bucks cheaper than Best Buy, they would make some money!
