As long as only 3 installs are concurrently on PC's you are in
compliance. You may have to resort to the telephone method of activation
but you are still legal.

I have purchased Office 2003 for Students and Teachers and know it can be installed on 3 computers at my home. I am considering upgrading my laptop soon and wonder if I install Office on my current laptop, if I can then transfer the license to my new laptop when I get rid of my old one. I don't want to use up one of my 3 licenses if it will only be valid for a few months. Does anyone know if MS would authorize a 4th computer if one of the first 3 was discarded?

Thank you.
