Oem

Can anyone tell me the difference between OEM licences and full licenses, or point me to a good website that can explain and give me some info on this.

Thanks

OEM software is intended to be sold with a new system, and support is the responsibility of the vendor, not the software manufacturer.

With Windows you can buy it if you buy some piece of hardware along with it. With M$ Office, you need to buy the entire machine. Other programs from other manufacturers can have another restrictions or conditions.
