Microsoft 'preparing cut-rate Windows' [Matthew Broersma, ZDNet UK, 9 Feb 2004] http://news.zdnet.co.uk/business/0,39020645,39145664,00.htm

"The software company will begin selling a version of Windows XP with reduced functionality and price to take advantage of the software market in poor countries, a senior Microsoft executive has said"

So, I'm assuming this cut-rate Windows will not be sold in the US. Are there international trade laws against this sort of price discrimination? Are we in the US (and other "rich" countries) paying more simply because we can?
