I've not owned a Live!, but I do have the Audigy and love it.
If you're having problems with the Live!, the Audigy relieve you of your problems.

o yah man.
OEM stuff is sold like crazy.
ATI's OEM vid cards (Radeon anyway) is sold with crappier memory and a slower clock speed.
There is a palce called tectronics in saskatchewan here, and they sell tons of OEM stuff. A vid card, in a static bag, with a manual held to the bag with an elastic bag.

Wasn't that the Radeon SE (Slow Edition )? I have picked up DVD/CD-ROMs, an MS Natural Keyboard, a GeForce, and other stuff in white boxes. The only difference in these cases was usually less software (stuff that I had full versions of anyway) and simpler packaging. Oh, and it was a lot cheaper too...
OEM hardware doesn't require the purchase of something extra. OEM software does require the purchase of hardware even if it's a $5 fan.
I could probably find a handful of retailers right now that would sell you OEM Windows or OEM Office with a £2 non-branded mouse.
Microsoft's official line on the selling of OEM copies is either with a new system or what the class a 'substantial' upgrade, motherboard, Hard Drive etc.
But there are always those retailers who will do what they like when it comes to OEM software.
As for OEM hardware, I wont buy OEM video cards (tend to be slower memory) I wont buy OEM CPU's (I want 3 years warranty, not 30days - 1yr).
Anything else, SCSI cards, soundcards etc OEM all the way, so much cheaper.
