Computer producer Most Computers was the first Bulgarian company to sign an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) partnership deal with Microsoft, Bulgarian daily Pari said.
Microsoft already has OEM distribution agreements with three other Bulgarian companies. The agreement with Most Computers means that the company would assemble computer-configurations complete with software from Microsoft specifically for its hardware.
This effectively put Most Computer in the same class as HP, Dell and others, Pari said.
As part of the agreements, Most Computers would become the sole distributor for Windows XP and the upcoming Windows 7 operating system.
