i.e. Windows XP Home retail and Windows XP Home OEM version? The OEM version can be had for around ?100 less, but I can't work out what the difference is.

OEM should only be supplied with either a new PC or select parts (i think that includes Processors and Harddrives). Anyone suppling OEM on its own is probably breaking the M$ licensing agreement.
/edit. Just had a quick look at the CCL website and the quote on oem software is:
Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional (OEM)
OEM software is only available with new systems or selected hardware purchases (CPU, HDD OR M/B)Last edited by Ginger Tosser; 07-10-2004, 15:01.
