Assuming that the copy of XP is not OEM then you're within the guidelines of
the EULA. According to the EULA you may have the OS installed on any one PC
at a time. Beyond that if it's OEM it may be tied to the initial hardware
that it came pre-installed on but from the sounds of things this doesn't
apply to you as you state that you bought XP Pro and not that it "came with
my computer" or some such.
