I suggest you start with http://www.microsoft.com/oem/main.mspx and
browse through the various web pages and contact links there.

That should provide you with some additional information and hopefully
also put you in contact with the people at Microsoft who have the
answers to your specific questions.

You might also want to contact your closest Microsoft office and seek
their assistance.
