SBS 2008 Premium Dell OEM Media

We have lost our media for SBS 2008 Premium (SBS 2008, Windows 2008 Standard).

Dell cannot provide it.  Microsoft told us to go ask Dell.

We are stuck, stuck, stuck.

Suggestions?

Yeah.  That's our process going forward.  

There is no media on eBay.  It's not legal to resell the meda.  Technet, MSDN and ActionPack all no love.

I need Dell or other SBS OEM media.

Easy to say buy Open License.  However my small business customers often can pay the extra $$$.  I always offer it first.

Tons of people out there have this media.  Hoping someone can help me get the copy I need.

Thanks.

Thanks for your advice about how to serve my customers even though I didn't ask for any.

Moderator.  Please apply points as you see fit.  My question was never answered.  Hence I don't plan to accept any answers on either question.  This will be my last post on this question.
dpweiss,
With respect, your question was answered very clearly by someone with a great deal of expertise with this topic (and an MS MVP).

In your original question, you stated "We are stuck, stuck, stuck." and asked for "Suggestions?".

In all fairness, you did get what your asked for (and perhaps a little more).

I am going to close out this question using the information provided. It will be good information for future readers with the same problem.
