I am shopping to buy xp pro, full, retail. I see a product code starting
with E85-. Does that mean anything to the buyer or is a microsoft internal
code? I don't want to end up with a promotional or academic copy.

Hi,

These are version numbers. Here are some:

E85-01012 = XP Pro Upgrade without SP2
E85-01011 = XP Pro Full without SP2
E85-02674 = XP Pro Full with SP2

N09-00361 = XP Home Upgrade without SP2
N09-00989 = XP Home Full with SP2

etc. etc.
