What do I get when I order something from you?

You get the CD(s) with the software in an envelope. You also get the activation key, serial number or CD key necessary to activate the software. Note, that you will not be able to register the software with the manufacturer and get technical support.


Where does this software come from ?

The software is shipped from Eastern Europe.

I was tempted with something similar as well, but smidgley is right - they're up to no good. You will either end up with nothing, or a pirate's copy of the software. In either case you're screwed.

I highly doubt this stuff is legit. You have to get a 'special version' of the WindowsXP service pack from them.
