I'm about to buy an external DVD burner for use with my new netbook running
WinXP. One offer I saw at Newegg was for the burner combined with Acronis
True Image Home 2009 OEM for an extra $8. Since I use Acronis in my two
other computers and would want to use it in this one, the combo seems like a
good one.
But what makes software OEM? I looked up this program by itself at Newegg
and found the OEM version sells for $25 and the "retail" version for $29.
"OEM" and "retail" appear under Packaging. I know that OEM hardware tends to
come with little or no information about installation and use, but what
could software be missing?
Thank you!
