Seriously? |

I recently purchased a laptop and am going to need to use office XP on it. I was browsing through the Xp user agreement and it sounds like Microsoft says you cannot use the same copy of Xp for your home computer and your notebook. That can't be right is it? You are "suppose" to buy two copies of XP if you own a notebook and a home computer is that right? I don't believe it.

Yes it is true! You have to buy 2 copies

If bought retail you can install a 2nd copy, as long as it is for your use.
"General License Grant to Install and Use Software Product. You may install
and use one copy of the Software Product on a single computer, device,
workstation, terminal, or other digital electronic or analog device
("Device"). You may make a second copy of the Software Product and install
it on a portable Device for the exclusive use of the person who is the
primary user of the first copy of the Software Product. A license for the
Software Product may not be shared."
To me, that pretty clearly says: "yes, a single user may install it on 2
machines, but no sharing with another user."
However, if you have a OEM version, it may be a different story.
