Office 2007 OEM

[Glenn]

The new laptop was purchased with Vista Home Premium and OEM versions of
2007. With the non OEM version, you can use older version of Office. For
example, you can install Office 2003 instead of Office 2007 when you purchase
Office 2007. I just need to clarify if this is the same with OEM version.
In any case, it's still installed on the same machine that came with Office
2007 (OEM). I don't like the new interface with 2007 and I prefer 2003 so I
don't mind using the old version at all.

Dont multi post, please, crosspost if you must
The facts dont change; an OEM version is not transferable
