That price is for EE,  not SE.  The current list price for SE is US$150,EE 
is US$690 I think.  I'll let you do the conversion to Loonies.

Extended Edition (EE)  is Stardard Edition (SE == The OS/2 operation system) 
plus a bunch of "value added" stuff that most home users do not want (IBM 
Mainframe emmulation stuff, etc).
