If not getting a manual saves me 150 quid then I'd go for the OEM version
any day. Even if I do buy a second copy I'm still better off having bought
two OEM's than one copy of the full retail version.

I don't have OEM's, all are original full or upgrades, only the laptops have
locked in software.
OEM's are available to buy, normally disk only with key, you save by not
having a printed manaul?
