=============================================

Thinking of saving some $$ by purchasing an OEM license of XP? Here is some food for thought.

 

I found this discussion by Danial McDanial on one of the MS newsgroups a pretty fair summary of the issues. I have added boldface to emphasis some issues that are generally ignored when looking only at $$ issues:

 

ALL OEM copies can only be installed clean: (that is, the hard

drive must be formatted before XP OEM can be installed). They cannot be

used to perform an upgrade of an existing Operating System so make sure

you back up all necessary data and files BEFORE installing XP OEM, since

the format of the Hard Drive will erase ALL data on it.

 

There are two types of OEM CDs:

1) an OEM version created by a system manufacturer. These copies are

usually "BIOS-locked", and can only be used on the exact machine they

were created for.

2) a "FULL OEM", or "FULL OEM DSP". These may be installed on any IBM-

compatible machine. These may or may not be provided with a factory-

built machine, but are usually purchased separately for installation a

home-built machine.

 

You will be making a trade-off in buying an OEM version. YOU will trade

the ability to upgrade an existing installation of Windows (and save

your data and programs) and the legal right to install the copy on a

new machine, (if you should change your old machine for a new one), for a

big savings in the initial cost of Windows XP.

 

Some examples of the price trade-off:

XP Home Edition (Retail)-- can be used to upgrade an existing

installation of Windows....$159-$199

XP Home Edition ("Full OEM", "FULL OEM DSP" -- cannot upgrade an

existing installation of Windows....$88-$110

XP Professional (Retail) -- can be used to upgrade an existing

installation of Windows...$239-$299

XP Professional ("FULL OEM", "FULL OEM DSP: -- cannot upgrade an

existing installtion of Windows....$139-$179

 

NOTE: OEM versions must legally be sold along with a hardware item, but

in many cases this hardware item may be a power-cord (usually a $1) or

mouse (they might even give you the mouse to satisfy Microsoft's

licensing requirements)

 

Having bought two "FULL OEM" versions of XP, Home Edition and

Professional, I do miss the ability to upgrade, keeping my programs and

data in place. Sometimes, it is really a lot of hassle to wipe my HD

each time I install the OS, then reinstall and reconfigure all my

software and desktop. However, many "in-the-know" users will tell you

that a "clean" install is the best type, since you will start with a

fresh hard drive, and clean Registry, and the machine will operate at

its peak efficiency, until it once again gets weighted down by repeated

changes.

 

My own additions:

 

Three other issues that need to be emphasized about an OEM license:

 

1. You will receive no support from Microsoft. You will be referred to the original OEM licensee.

2. You cannot upgrade the FULL OEM DSP version. When longhorn or whatever appears this will not be a qualifying license.

3. Currently you can transfer (no, not two copies) a non-OEm license to a new machine. You remove XP from the first machine and the license will transfer to the new machine. You call Microsoft and they will issue you a new activation code. You cannot do this with the OEM license. It is for one machine only, the original machine. You will not be issued an activation code for a new machine.
