Frequently Asked Questions

How long will it take to get my product?

Please review our shipping options Here

How do you ship?

We ship either US Mail or Fed Ex for the United States.  For Canada and Puerto Rico we ship only FedEx.

What is the difference between Academic and Retail products and do I need credentials to purchase Academic?

Academic software includes the same software and packaging as the regular retail versions but with a label "Academic" on the box and is "Academically priced." The software is not limited or different from the commercial version.

Manufacturers offer Academic software to Students and Teachers at discounted prices, but again, the software is not different in any way than the Commercial version.

DiscountMountainSoftware does not require any proof that you will be using academic software for academic use nor does the manufacturer. It is on the honor system between you and the manufacturer.

 What is the difference between Microsoft OEM and Retail?

Microsoft OEM is a packaging type and includes the installation disc(s), Certificate of Authenticity, and product key code(if needed).

Microsoft OEM is different from Full Retail in the following ways:

  • Microsoft OEM does not come in a Retail Box

  • There are no printed manuals included

  • The software cannot be transferred to another computer (even if the original computer breaks)

  • The software is not eligible for free technical support from the manufacturer. Help files can usually be found on the disc and printed out.

  • Microsoft OEM software is the same software as Retail and can be upgraded, it just comes in different packing.

What does it mean by Branded OEM?

Branded software will have a HP or Dell logo on the disc, but it will function on any computer that meets Windows 7 requirements.  The actual software is the same as any OEM software

Why has the price changed?

 Prices are subject to change at any time.
