You need a license for each PC.

Usually in shops. Or online.

If you're buying large, try asking for a discount... the usually do.

The license is just the serial number?


Yes.

Yes... but you must have at least one original media cd. You can copy this
disc as many times as you like.

For small quantities, the cheapest way is to buy OEMs from a reseller,
complete with cd's.

The license is a Certificate of Authenticity which comes in the form of a
sticker with a product key on it.

Having the number is not enough, you must have the COA.

Bagpuss said this...

That's all you get now. No handbook anymore, just a mean little sticker.
Must be counting the pennies at microsoft.

Seems Conor holds a different opinion of what is allowed ... but he's yet to
enlighten me.
