Office and Home Installation
Posted by admin on Aug 13th, 2006
Will one copy of Vista Business install on both an office computer and a home computer as XP was able to do? the implication being only one of the two will be in operation at any one time.

Hi GWXP wasn't able to do it "legally". For XP and Vista it's one OS per one box period. You may be confusing doing this with the OS with Office which did and still does allow this through Office 2007 and its 27 related applications.CH "GW"

Nope. One copy per machine. It was the same way with Windows XP and the many versions before that.To be fully compliant with the EULA, anyway. A lot of people just installed it on as many machines as they had. So 1 copy was on 10 different machines. Not legal by the EULA, but it worked. Now, activation helps keep the consumer in check. The pirates are the ones that can easily get around that, though... Dustin Harper dharper@vistarip.com vistarip.com "GW"
