A. The retail and OEM versions usually will have the same exact product, however the retail version usually will come with bundled software, retail packaging. OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) versions will come with the actual product and usually the drivers, no special packaging or software. Occasionally the retail version will accompany a longer warranty. Suggestion: Check out the manufacturer’s website, to see what all is included.
