[QUOTE="Lisa, post: 353722, member: 27317"] OEM is "branded" to go with a computer at the time of sale. It can have restrictions, for example XP sold with a Dell system is not the same as XP sold with a Gateway system, etc. Some resellers have OEM software to sell - but it is different from retail. You want full retail. Parallels will specify during setup that it will not take OEM - but they don't tell you that beforehand! [/QUOTE]
