Office Professional 2003

I bought the OEM Office Professional 2003 disc and I have used it on a
desktop for 3 years. (I am going to sell the desktop). I just bought 2
laptops (one for me and one for my wife) and want to install Office
Professional 2003 on each of the laptops. Is Microsoft going to give me a
problem? Are there certain steps I need to take in order to do this
correctly? When I did the install and opened one of the programs I was
reminded about having to activate either by phone or Internet. (If I don't,
the program will open only 49 more times and that's it.) I own the OEM disc.
Everything is 100% legitimate.

Yes, OEM is tied to a single specific system. You will need a full retail
version to use it on more than one computer. Actually you will need two
copies because the retail version allows the second installation only for
one user and not at the same time.
