I know that software is licensed for one use. One copy of Office 2003/2000/XP
all loaded on a desktop and laptop. I've spent 10's of thousands of dollars
on MS software (and thousands of hours of beta testing) over the years and
will keep doing so. I now have Office 2007 Professional and simply wanted to
know if the same setup still applies. I don't want to load a copy of the
software on my laptop if I will be rejected in the verification process and
have to start all over. It's all about wasting my time!

Yes, it does. Look here:

http://www.microsoft.com/about/legal/useterms/

BTW, you might want to keep that URL for future reference.

Here's the applicable part:

===================================================================
1. OVERVIEW. These license terms permit installation and use of one
copy of the software on one device, along with other rights, all as
described below.
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.
=====================================================================

I learned something new today and I apologize to everyone if it sounded like
my reply to JoAnn was not well thought out. Thanks for the reply David and
JoAnn.

Asking and answering questions in a newsgroup isn't as easy as some people
think. There can be many seemingly small details that can completely change
a response. I'm glad you got the answer you needed. :)

I must install Office 2007 today, because I need to practice before I start
teaching it on Tuesday. I would normally install it on my desktop computer;
however, I have two major problems this year. First, my main computer is in
dire need of formatting, which I plan to do during Spring break. Second, I
have a broken foot and must keep it elevated; therefore, I can only use my
laptop.

My question - Can I install Office Enterprise 2007 (for Faculty& Student
Use) on my (portable) laptop computer without installing it on my (main)
desktop computer first? And if so, should I uninstall it from the laptop
before trying to install it on the desktop in March?
