MS Office 2007, Can it be installed on multiple PCs using 1 product key?

Like the operating systems, MS has a validation system and will only allow usage on one PC. Is MS doing the same with the MS Office products?

If you don't know, don't answer - please give a resource for your answer. Thanks

    Yes, Microsoft is using product activation to prevent copies of office from being installed on more than one PC.

    Well, in a pinch you can. Technically, it is one key - one computer.

    If you are a business environment, don't even attempt it. Not worth it. It is embarassing if something happens and worst yet, you have to pay heavy fine. That is adding insult to injury.

    You can install XP the same way. More than one computer in a home environment. But if you don't tell, I won't..

    Why not just install OpenOffice? It's free, and compatible with MS Office and other office suites. It is also updated on a regular basis.

    You can get it at http://www.openoffice.org/
