The acronym "OEM" represents "Original Equipment Manufacturer."
When used in the context of software licensing, it refers to
software that's intended to be sold pre-installed on a computer, or
in conjunction with a piece of computer hardware.



Unless you live in a country that does not have either the
pre-installed or the piece of computer hardware requirement trip.

Actually if I remember correctly the rules have now changed, and you
can get OEM only in a computer, not with "a piece of computer
hardware."

Wrong. Just go to New Egg, or Walmart. There in no longer any hardware
requirement when purchasing OEM software.
