1364319 2014-01-05 08:47:00 'DSP OEI' what does it mean?

Is it the same as MS Windows 8.1 x64 OEM?

1364320 2014-01-05 17:53:00 I've googled your query. There are several sites but one explains it as "DSP means “Delivery Service Partner.” It is a version of OEM software used by smaller computer manufacturers and system builders. OEI = Original Equipment Installation" Bryan (147)

From another Forum

The software in both OEM versions and DSP versions is the same. OEM software normally has the hardware manufacturer’s name, such as Dell or Sony, printed on the manual and license. DSP software, however, has NO manufacturer’s name stamped on the manual or printed on the license. DSP versions usually just say “OEM.” Basically, DSP is a more generic packaging of an OEM product that is sold to smaller system builders who do not qualify for larger volume discounts and custom printing on their software.
