:disgust:First of all I am running win98se OEM. I want to go to windows XP home. I was told that if I buy the upgrade that I cannot do a "clean" install because I have win98 OEM not retail. I am confused. Win xp home retail is approx $200, win xp home OEM is approx $89 and win xp home upgrade is $99. WHAT is the main difference between win xp retail and OEM? I know that the OEM copy is not sold through stores like comp usa and legally to sell OEM, a piece of hardware is usually sold with it (like a hard disk). Other than this, is win xp OEM and win xp retail the same?
Thanks
