Due to this confusion, it can increase the price of the computer as much as $150 USD. Because the software comes prepackaged on most PCs it is covered by a separate license agreement. Apparently, if the software is "re-imaged" using the Microsoft Select Volume Licensing plan, it can jack the prices of the computer higher. Read the report from the Gartner Group for more information.
