Landmark has their pricing up as well now. The 32 bit + 64 bit ones are the retail copies. http://www.landmarkpc.co.za/store/mi...9_228_678.html

Still waiting on prophecy since I want to use my coupons.

I still can't get over why Vista full retail for Home Premium is like R2000+ and Win7 equivilent is R1300 - wherez the logic? I'm not gonna huffy about it, but Having bought Vista full retail, it IS a bit of a sore point @ least financially speaking.

The logic is that vista was a newly build from the ground up engine where as windows 7 is build on vista engine. With major improvements.

I also paid full retail for vista home premium, plus twice I had to pay postage. Once to get the 64 bit disc and then for sp 1. Very happy win 7 is cheaper.

Prophecy are putting up their retailing pricing. Seems about the same as the others.
