Is it possible to buy a License on its own for XP pro

Thanks

If you already have a retail copy of Windows XP, you can obtain
additional licenses for another computer or laptop by visiting the
following Microsoft Web site:

Yes, but MS only discounts the license 15% and you can buy a
whole new package for less than that on-line.

If your country/region is not on the list, then Additional License is not
currently available for purchase. Please visit your nearest reseller to
purchase a copy of Windows XP for this computer. Click Close.


UK is not listed

If yours is a retail version, not an OEM one, yes you can buy
extra licenses (see
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/howtobuy/addlic.asp). But
it's not generally a good deal. The problem is that Microsoft
sells additional licenses at only a small savings over the list
price. You're almost certainly better off just buying a complete
second copy from a discount source.
