Give Peas a Chance
I just bought a laptop and it runs Windows XP, but did not come with Microsoft Office. Can I take a copy of Office from my desktop and install it on the laptop without Bill Gates beating down my door?

You are legally allowed to make 1 copy of MS Office as a backup. Go for it.Railroad said:YES! Your license entitles you to one desktop and one laptop installation. This I learned directly from Microsoft.

Then again, I have 20 licenses for stuff like that. I've also got 10 licenses for Windows Vista and 20 licenses for Windows XP and Office 2000. I should say I have 4 copies of Office 2000 with 20 licenses.
Also, the Office CD's that are "Distributed with a new PC" are OEM licenses. They're not as limitedin activations, usually because OEM copies are coporate owned.
