I dont quite know if its in the retail box or not. It might just come in a sleeve like the Vista Business version that I had gotten.
Regardless anyone want it? Its totally new. I havent even recieved it yet. Microsoft sent it to me for free but I dont think I want it...
It should be a retail like version (meaning ownership is transferrable between computers) but might just come in a sleeve with a key printed on the back. It is a FULL (can install from blank drive and does not require a previous version of windows to install) version and I believe is SP1.
200 shipped?

You may want to check and see if the software is NFR (Not for resale) or not, because sometimes MS freebies are NFR. Selling NFR software can land you in hot water.
I also got in on this program, and I am not sure if we will be receiving a version that is OK to resell.
Here is some more information:
Search for NFR.

Even if you are permitted to resell it by the terms of the license, you must have the item in your possession to be eligible to sell it here at MacRumors.
