OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. It signifies that the particular version of that product does not come with a retail box. Installation instructions are typically loaded on a disk or CD rather than in a printed manual, although, depending on the manufacturer, you may receive a printed manual as well.
OEM software products are generally required to be sold or bundled with hardware - Hard Drives, CPUs, etc. OEM does NOT mean an item is recycled or refurbished. We encourage you to contact the product manufacturer if you have any further questions or concerns regarding OEM products.
