Well I posted a link to the other persons so I was wondering if you could compare the two and decide which is better

Honestly, this thread is finished, my question was answered. If anyone has any questions, ask away, but my main question is done. I don't even know why we are still talking

I read that MS will not be permitting OEM installs of Win 7 (which I and over 50% of Windows users still like to use) after Oct 2016.

Maybe there will be a way around this after the deadline. Let's hope so.

Happy Hunting!

Sorry, Microsoft & Original equipment manufacturer.

"The main difference between OEM and Retail is that the OEM license does not allow moving the OS to a different computer, once it is installed.

After installation, an OEM copy is essentially indistinguishable from a retail copy."

"Q: I build my own computers--mainly so I'll know what's in them and dont have to fool with the manufacturers' alleged "tech support" while I'm in warranty. At some point in the future I'll probably want to build one with Windows 7--when I do, do I qualify to use the "OEM System Builders" version or do I have to buy a retail copy?"

"A: Yes, you can buy the "OEM System Builders" version of Windows 7. Many online stores sell it."
