Product Questions
What
are OEM products?
OEM, or Original Equipment Manufacturer, products are different
from retail versions in both licensing and packaging. OEM products
have the license on the CD. No paper license is required for
OEM products. OEM products usually consist of a CD, COA (Certificate
of Authenticity), and a quick start guide. The full manual is
accessible on the CD itself.
What
are CD Only products?
CD
Only Products do not include any books or manuals. You receive
the CD media only. CD Only Products are good as a backup or if
you didn't receive an original CD with your new PC.
What
are Licenses, COA or EULAs?
Licenses, or End User License Agreements (EULA), give a
customer the right to install and use that program on a machine.
In many cases a business, school, or government will purchase
one CD version and purchase many additional licenses. Since the
customer doesn't have to pay for CDs with each license, this
method is much cheaper than purchasing a full version with CD
for each machine.
Some OEM products come
with (COA)Certificate of Authenticity which confirms that the
product was legitimately manufactured. Some businesses prefer
this because it allows them to place a sticker to visually
identify a system with specific software.
What
are Retail products?
Retail Products are the same products you purchase at local
software stores. It is packaged for retail sale and include retail
box, cd(s), manual, paper license agreement, and registration
card. Any customer qualifies for retail products.
What
are Academic products?
Academic products are for use by students, faculty, or staff
of an educational facility. These products are identical to the
standard (non-academic) versions except the license is labeled "Academic".
Customers should determine their eligibility before purchasing
Academic products.
What
does CAL stand for?
Client Access License. These allow the right for a computer
to have access to the server, which is different than an operating
system or workstation license which grants you the right to have
an operating system running on your system.
What
does no media mean?
No CD or floppy disks are included.
