It seems clear the license agreement for Office 2007 Professional provides
for an install on two computers via a primary (licensed) device and a
secondary portable right.
MS FAQ's clearly state that:
1. The licensed device can be to either a desktop or a portable.
2. The secondary must be to a portable.
Since I want one of my installs to be to my desktop, that has to be the
primary licensed device and the secondary portable install of course will be
to my laptop.
MY QUESTION: Must the 2nd install (time wise) always be to the secondary
portable right? In other words, can I install to the laptop first and
then to the desktop?
I'm curious to know the answer regarding both:
1. Whether product activation, having previously recorded my product key as
having already completed an installation, physically prevent a second install
onto anything other than a portable device?
2. Even if I'm not prevented from doing so by product activation, is making
the second install to a desktop a violation of the license agreement, even if
the 1st install is to a laptop?
I also understand there is a right to "reassign" but that can only be done
once every 90 days?
