Windows in Russia is no longer for sale?
An interesting situation.
I calculate different options with the legalization of software on a small car park. One of the acceptable options is to buy licenses for Windows and install OpenOffice.
But I could not buy Windows.
A friend came up to me, a designer, also a sysadmin part-time and also preoccupied with the problem of urgent legitimization, and said: “Microsoft has stopped issuing Russian localized versions of XP. On sale only the English Pan-European for 310 USD for a license, I already called the store 3-4 - all the boxed versions of XP only by order, in 3-4 weeks and in a pan-European warrior ”.
I was surprised at the sites of the box stores in stock. I called myself at www.shop-it.ru (I did not buy anything there before, but respond politely). Required to me - Get Genuine Kit - legalizer for 10 versions is offered for order with prepayment, in two weeks.
A regular box with WindowsXP Pro is promised to be delivered only after May 18, and they also recommend to make an advance payment, since they have almost the entire order painted.
Here is a parsley obtained. Maybe someone knows the reason? It seems to me that the case is in law, but what else can?

But while freeing up time to study open systems. Windows still can not buy :)
