[BNM] MS Office Licences

I'm 99% sure that OEM versions are exactly the same as retail / boxed
products except they don't come with support from Microsoft.  If there is
any support, it's down to the reseller to provide it.

Regarding Nick Wilsdon's original question - is it possible his friend needs
the Developer Edition (I know there was an Office 2000 developer edition)?
I'm sure this has a price tag of thousands, but I meant you could develop
Office-based applications, or have applications with integrated Office
components and be legally allowed to sell those applications / solutions.
So instead of his friend needing to install Office on each machine, he'd
just distribute the appropriate office components with his software.

Richard Maynard.
