I think that it is the retail version. I had just bought it for the lic code.

Mine was new; but not in a retail package. I've been running these on my commuter, and haven't had any problems yet (~800 miles) .

OEM versions are licensed for use on the machine it was originally installed on and cannot be transferred. Technically it is supposed to be installed on new hardware only. Retail copies (either full or upgrade) can be transferred to another machine as long as it's only in use on one at a time.

If it is compatible, it was truly "plug and play". For the price, you can't beat it. It is OEM, but it is not exactly an "original".

This picture does not show "EPSON" on the cartridge, so I would doubt that it is OEM. My cartridges all have EPSON on each side of the cartridge.

The one that I purchased came with the genuine version. I have not had any issues with my computer. They are a great value for the money.

The one I received is a genuine Toshiba instead of just a generic one, so it is original Toshiba in my case. I am not sure for anyone else.

It is not OEM but, it worked very well when you transfer your existing internals to the new shell. Looks very close to OEM as well, I was very happy with the result

Mine was retail. You will have to make sure that you do contact Microsoft if & when you want to move it to another computer. My license is for only "1" computer. I do have an OEM copy that has not been opened or used that is designed for system builders that I will sell for $150.00 & you pay shipping. Did I give you enough?

Apparently not! I just received mine in the mail and was shocked that it didn't, considering that the title, page, and other reviews say nothing about it being OEM.

ALL "OEM" branded software has already been installed and activated on a pre-loaded "branded" (Dell, HP, etc) computer. OEM software is NOT intended for resale under any circumstances, and in the case of Windows OS software, will most likely NOT activate successfully... meaning BIG WASTE OF MONEY TO BUY!!Do NOT be fooled by the fact that it installs and all. Activation is the ultimate goal upon installation to determine if it is good or not!

You meant to ask, if it is1- OEM for builders2- Retail VersionAnswer is "1" the OEM Retail versions are bought only to attain some pathetic and useless Microsoft support incident.

The one I received is a Factory OEM unit. It has the same markings and identification as the original one I got when I bought the car. Very satisfied with the unit.

It came in sealed, original Canon packaging, so as far as I'm concerned , it's OEM.

If the price is about 1,400.00, then yes - it's the full installation disc. Legit serial number, Flash, DreamWeaver, and everything. Go for it! Better than the cloud version, in my book.

Where I bought it from it says its a OEM Samsung Authentic and it has the logo and everything marked on it. It is not working as intended though.

I was trying to remember as I recall I do believe it was the retail version - but not 100% sure. It has been in my raid and I haven't experienced any problems with it.
