Thats wrong.

You can buy OEM version if you want, Usually have to buy it with a new harddrive or new piece of hardware. which can be a slittle as a mouse

I don't think so.  I'm quite sure it has to be with a substantial piece of equipment, not a peripheral (mouse, keyboard, etc.).  I'm quite sure an OEM version can only be purchased with the likes of a motherboard or possibly a hard drive or some other significant piece of hardware.  If someone feels like correcting me on this then go right ahead.

EDIT: and Microsoft says in this word document that you are not to transfer OEM products from one computer to the next.
