I bought mine during a 4th of July sale, it was cheaper but I don't
remember exactly by how much. Additionally there were some extra options
available on the DOS machine that weren't on the Windows side, like less
RAM and a smaller hard drive, which made it even cheaper. Anyhow, you
should be able to get a quote off of the site.

I scratched off the Windows logo from an older IBM desktop keyboard
before, kind of don't like how the keys feel now. I'm a little concerned
about the acetone, but might try it on a key I don't care as much about.
