Hello,

My question is I work in a Non-Proft organization. Now for MS charity
licenses is the price flat out 1 consistant price? or is it avaiable to
vendors to (bend) the rules?

I've notice prices range from $65 to $72 from different vendors and Computer
manufacturers... HP, Dell, Gateway and 3rd party resellers.
If so, is there a price range they can not break?
Another question, can a vendor or reseller get sanction by Microsoft for
selling licenses below charity pricing?
My Agency is in the process of purchasing a large order of computers and we
have a few vendors going below charity prices that I normally see.
