Alles Gute zum Geburtstag


To Whom It May Concern,

[...]

Rummaging about online led to the horrific discovery that my CD-ROMs may be too old-school for all this newfangled gadgetry, that I perforce must avail myself of the very latest and greatest in software iterations, and that you folk were actually helpful when it came to these matters. Fortunately I still have my Compact OED on the mantelpiece, though I may have trouble fully opening it upon the small table pierced by a large umbrella at the local coffee shop where I so oft write.

Thank you for your inquiry to Oxford University Press Technical Support.

Unfortunately, the authentication process will fail when using an external DVD/CD-ROM drive to install the OED. We recommend installing the OED to a computer with an internal drive.

We apologize for any inconvenience.


Sincerely,
