Well, $60 dollars is money saved!

Just think how much Vegemite you could buy with that!

Thanks, that worked. Whenever I was trying I could not get to that page on their website.

Just got a reply from Newegg. Quite fast. Not what I'm used to when contacting companies. Unfortunately they don't sell or ship to Australia.

Mychael, it works out a lot cheaper. You can purchase keys for Pro for as little as $20 on eBay. Pro or Home Premium 64 bit is a 3GB download. Keys for both run about the same, from $20 to $50 (US prices). You just need to look at the seller's ratings. And after the preview of the item, scroll down, you will usually see a series of Q's & A's. You can get support from Microsoft with these keys, however most are intended to be installed on one computer only, for the life of the key. I had to call them over an issue with mine, I had activated it over 10 times, you must call Microsoft after that. These listings are not a secret from Microsoft, there's thousands sold daily. As far as a 64 bit XP goes, I just looked, there were several up for bid. Hope this helps.
