    Try newegg. I think you can buy OEM copies there, which will be pretty cheap. If they won't work, you're just gonna have to suck it up and buy the retail version. It sucks, I know.

    Also, check out craig's list as quite a bit of Apple MB users are selling theirs now that they have it installed. Also, check with your friends/workers etc for their windows xp w/ sp2.
