Post OEM Software

I am constantly being bombarded with offers for software at what seems to be good discounted prices. I am sure everyone else is too!

I would like to start a discussion here on the reality of experiences on dealing with this - both good, bad or possibly your personal experience or advice in this matter.

Is it a scam? Is is it OK? Any conditions members should be aware of, etc.

Thanks in advance - Claude In Canada

I woudn't buy any software from somebody that contacts me trying to sell it. Nothing wrong with OEM software, but you won't get vendor support for it. Make sure you buy from a reputable vendor ad make sure it isn't bootleg.



“The things that will destroy America are peace at any price,
prosperity at any cost, safety first instead of duty first,
the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.”
