    As Stefan pointed out, OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. In summary, an OEM version of software is the version that comes bundled with hardware and cannot be sold / resold separately. Certain versions of CorelDRAW are available as OEM versions. And for those who found the great offers for and OEM copy of CorelDRAW bundled with a cheap mouse for less than half price of the box version, that is not legal software from Corel. 

    As a rule, you cannot buy OEM software legally, and if they bundle a very cheap hardware, it doesn't make it legal.
