Which Edition and License?

Microsoft Software licenses typically come in three flavours:

a) OEM License: The least expensive and best way to buy Original Microsoft Software is to get it preinstalled when you are buying a PC. The license you get is an OEM License.

b) FPP License: A Fully Packaged Product (FPP) refers to the retail pack that you can buy
online or from a retail store or get it delivered to your door-step. FPP is most suited when you need Original Microsoft Software for 1-4 PCs.

Typically, you can also purchase Software Assurance (SA) along with your Volume License to get the latest updates and versions.
