OEM

original equipment manufacturer.

oem software is what you get “bundled in” free when you buy a computer. it might include windows, some complete older programs, “taster” versions of new programs, etc.

oem stuff is unsupported and comes without manuals or any kind of help. it’s a free gift, take it or leave it.

buying second-hand oem software can get you a real bargain, as long as you know enough to get by without the manual or support.
when i bought my new computer, they gave me five oem programs free.
acronym for original equipment manufacturer

it’s just another way of saying “stock.” the parts that come standard on anything: cars, computers, boats, planes, electric tools, ect. just to name a few.
just get the oem brake pads; they may be stock, but they work fine.
stands for “original equipment manufacturer.” this refers to a company that produces hardware to be marketed under another company’s brand name. you can also use the term as a verb, such as, “that dell monitor over there is oem’d by sony.”
for example, if sony makes a monitor that will marketed by dell, a “dell” label will get stuck on the front, but the o.e.m. of the monitor is sony.

that should impress your friends.
