Mac Pro+Logic Pro 8+EWQL Plat. Bundle compatibility.

I'm thinking of upgrading to a Mac Pro with Logic Pro 8 and using the  
East West Orch Platinum Bundle with the latest OSX.
At the East West web site they mention that:
"Use of this product (Plat. Bundle) with an Intel Mac requires  
Kontakt 2.2 or later (not included)."
My question is this: Does the EXS 24 in Logic Pro 8 include the  
Kontakt 2.2 ?
If not, how much is the Kontakt 2.2 ?
Are there some folk in Logic land who use a Mac Pro with Logic Pro 8  
and the East West Orch Platinum Bundle with the latest OSX who could  
comment on how well this combination works.
My primary concern is how well this system set-up can create a  
convincing orchestral midi mock-up.

Thanks in advance,
Jim
