I have the Version 4 of the CD-ROM Second Edition of the full OED which was published in 2009. It installs on the hard drive unlike (all??) earlier versions. It seems to have entries and draft entries that I've noticed up until late 2008 at least. It was the last CD-ROM version published.

It has a search capability and apart from a slightly clunky user interface it is as easy to use as other electronic dictionaries, so it is used all the time as my main dictionary.
