Office 2003 on 2 PC's?

[Jack Barrett]

I have loaded Office 2003 on my PC at home.
It is registered under my name.
My question is this:

Can I load it on my wife's PC? She does not have my last name.
Do I load it under my name or her name?
Can I do this legally so we can get updates?

Thanks,

Jack Barrett

Jack Barrett,
If you go to the help menu and click "About" you can view your end user
license agreement which states how you can install Office 2003.

No, you may not. Read the EULA: -

"1. GRANT OF LICENSE. Microsoft grants you the following rights provided
that you comply with all terms and conditions of this EULA:
1.1 Installation and use. You may:
(a) install and use a copy of the Software on one personal computer or
other device; and
(b) install an additional copy of the Software on a second, portable device
for the exclusive use of the primary user of the first copy of the
Software."

In addition, if your software is OEM, it may *NOT* be installed on any other
system - ever. The licence is tied to the first system it's installed on.

I don't believe so. But you might want to read the qualifications and features

The Student & Teacher edition, if you qualify, might give you the licenses you
need at a very reasonable price.
