    OEM CD w/COA = OEM CD with Certificate of Authenticity

    not the way i am reading it

    It does come with the OEM cdrom and a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) from Microsoft, saying that this is a legitimate product. Microsoft does not want Consumers to purchase these at a reduced price, so Microsoft will not offer technical support for these. This is still fully licensable and registerable with Microsoft.

    The OEM w/ KEY just has the serial number on a label on the back of the cd sleeve. Some people feel more secure getting the product key on a COA while others are willing to save money and just get the key number on a label. Both are fully licensable and able to be registered with Microsoft.

    6 mins left for me, but according to what I'm reading it seems this oem iso is like the retail one, or am I wrong ?

    Don't try to be a smart ass... that's not the only difference
    OEM:COA can be purchased from stores separately
    OEM:SLP can not be purchased, these only come with Pre-activated systems from Microsoft OEM partners (HP,DELL,ACER etc etc)

    Is that your confirmation, from the full download, that neither the cert nor key are within this release ?
