※ 引述《duer ()》之銘言： : 推 ankasc:我推abcdefghi講的，事實上就我所知，CL公司算是有點不屑賺 11/02 21:47 : → ankasc:軟體代工的錢的（指軟體規格別人提，只負責coding），比較 11/02 21:49 : → ankasc:著重在retail的市場，retail的市場雖然不好打，但是老實說 11/02 21:50 : → ankasc:我倒覺得他們算做得蠻成功的。除此之外，是真的有公司在做 11/02 21:51 : → ankasc:軟體代工這一塊（非CL公司），軟體代工比起自己打市場來講 11/02 21:51 : → ankasc:，應該算是比較能創造穩定收入或獲利比較短期可見的部分 11/02 21:52 : → ankasc:。但CL公司和硬體廠的合作，其實比較像是合作策略而已。 11/02 21:54 : 推 ledia:不知 CL 的營運中, 多少是 retail, 多少是隨機 package 的? 11/03 00:09 : 推 LancerYuan:ratail大概占20% 11/03 02:28 : 推 LancerYuan:CL最賺錢的就是軟體代工的部分,retail的根本沒辦法賺. 11/03 02:30 : → LancerYuan:CL是依照客戶需求去寫(改)軟體,就是軟體代工. 11/03 02:30 : → LancerYuan:微軟和趨勢科技等軟體公司，是把軟體寫好了，然後跑去 11/03 02:32 : → LancerYuan:客戶那邊跟客戶說:這是我的軟體, 很好很好喔, 妳要不要 11/03 02:32 : → LancerYuan:買. 本質上我覺得不是軟體代工的意思. 11/03 02:33 : 推 abcdefghi:和機器一起賣叫代工,那nb附Windows,pccilin為何不是代工 11/03 06:45 在 wiki 上看到有人對 Software OEM 做了解釋, 這樣定義的話, 隨機版的軟體 (Cyberlink,Windows,pccilin), 確實都算是 OEM, 不過, 對照分工清楚,生產成本考量高的硬體產業, 對從事 Software OEM 的廠商而言, 比較像是單純的商業手法. -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_equipment_manufacturer Software OEM, when used to describe software, is used to differentiate that version of the software which is bundled with other hardware or software from that same software package sold on its own as a retail package. The packaging and legal rights that come with the OEM versions of a software package generally differ from what is provided with the retail versions. The functionality of the software is sometimes the same, but it is quite common for the OEM version to be a version with reduced functionality. (For instance the OEM version of Cyberlink PowerDVD supports two-channel audio but not multi-channel sound systems. A customer who wishes to play DVDs with multi-channel sound is required to pay to upgrade to the full version). The OEM version of a software package may also be limited to be usable only with the hardware it came with. For instance the Nero burning ROM OEM software only functions with the same brand burner it is bundled with. Typically OEM software licenses require the installer to agree to additional terms to have a valid license. Microsoft requires certain conditions of distribution and support for its System Builders, which is how it describes the installers with privileges to use OEM licenses. The requirements include: automated methods of installation of the product; customization of the installation to identify the OEM; first level technical support of the product; application of a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) to the hardware; and distribution of original media and booklets. OEM software may be licensed under conditions requiring that it be sold with computer hardware. Such conditions have been ruled null and void by the courts of some countries, such as Germany. In those countries where they are deemed binding, to avoid contravening the conditions while passing OEM software savings on to end users, some retailers will sell OEM software with a token hardware device of small cost, such as an obsolete motherboard, single SIMM, or a cable splitter to satisfy the letter of the licensing agreement. This practice is questionable, and may open the end user to audits by publishers. The practice of utilizing OEMs in today's cost competitive environment falls under the broader category of outsourcing - a popular business strategy which taps into the original manufacturer's ability to drive cost out of production of the product through manufacturing economies of scale; thereby being able to pass on a more competitive purchase price to the reseller which, in turn, makes each partner in the transaction more competitive. ※ 編輯: abcdefghi 來自: 140.113.23.107 (11/03 07:57)
