If you are still interested here is how you go about getting it:

1. Go to the Windows XP Home product page at Office Depot.

3. Continue Checkout.
4. On the page where you enter in your shipping information it shows your shopping cart, there you should see a red “Coupon” button. Click it and enter in the code 25828894.
5. That’s it, complete the rest of the checkout process.
6. Print off the $70 rebate form to mail-in after you have received your purchase.

The rebate is valid on purchases until 9/16/2006 and the coupon code is valid until 9/15/2006, so you don’t have too much time to think about it.
