No, you're both wrong. You and meashershithead are both logic and
intelligence impaired. Having a "suggested" retail price does not in any
way "control' the actual retail price.
The retailer's ultimately set their own retail price and MS can't do
anything about it.
Period!
Live with it!
Sorry, but it's obvious that neither one of you lying linux clowns knows
anything at all about retailing.
The two of you atheist need to get a life.
