I thought it was a good idea at the time when I bought 3 retail copies of Windows XP on the last day they were available to the public. They have never been installed on a computer and only one has had the package opened. Seems a waste, in retrospect.

Don't get rid of them!!

Wait patiently and they will earn you your investment back. Check out the unopened copies of Windows, going all the way back to 95 and 98, that are offered on Amazon and similar sites. There will be a market for XP for a long time, and the value of your copies will increase.
