Outlook 2003 on laptop and desktop

Just looking at upgrading my Outlook to 2003 from 2000 but wondering if I am allowed to install it on my desktop and my laptop that I use when I am away from my desk if I only buy one copy. Does the 2003 licence allow me to install on one desktop and laptop like the older versions

thanks

Yes, the standard retail license covers installation on both a desktop and a
laptop.

Thanks at least I know then I only need to buy one copy. Just out of interest doesn the OEM version that comes with a new pc allow installation on a laptop also or only just the Retail version?

An OEM copy is licensed only for use on the machine that you purchased with
the software installed. It does not allow you to install it on a second
machine, nor can you transfer the software to another computer and stop
using it on the original machine.

Thanks for the info sue. I don't have an OEM copy so the info was just for my interest and curiousity. I can only buy retail and that's what I have ordered so I am all set. There is just no other product that comes even close to Outlook so I don't mind spending the money but it makes it even better if I don't have to pay for the copy on my laptop

thanks again
