Office Professional 2007 registration failure

[Plf67]

I recenlty purchased Microsoft Office Professional 2007 and Microsoft Office
Outlook 2007 with Business Contact Manager. We have 3 laptops within our home
and I need it to be on all 3 personal pcs, so we all have the same main
programs yet our pc is our own style in the settings. I enetered the product
key on one but it will not accept it on the others. How do I register it on
my other home computers?

If you purchased a retail-box version of Office 2007 Professional, then
you can legally install the software on two computers, but not on three.

Actually, the way they are using the software - three people, they would be
violating the EULA if it was installed on the second machine as the second
install is "to be used by the primary person on both devices" (my quotes.)
They would need to purchase 2 more licenses to be "legal."

From MS EULA for Office 2007 Pro -

2.INSTALLATION AND USE RIGHTS. Before you use the software under a license,
you must assign that license to one device. That device is the "licensed
device." A hardware partition or blade is considered to be a separate
device.

a.Licensed Device. You may install and use one copy of the software on the
licensed device.
b.Portable Device. You may install another copy on a portable device for use
by the single primary user of the licensed device.
