I recently purchased Office 2007 and would like to know how many computers I
am allowed to install it on.

What difference does this make? You have already purchased Office 2007 so I
suggest install on your first/main system and activate it online. Then install
it on your second system (assuming you have two) and activate it online. In
doing so you will always get the opportunity to read the EULA and accept it. In
the EULA, you will be told in black and white in how many systems your VERSION
of Office 2007 can be installed.

Normally it is on two systems but it all depends on the version you have and the
country you are based in. Microsoft allows upto 3 systems in countries like
China just to stop them from pirating.

hope this helps.

Thank you.

Is there a way to read the EULA without going through the installation
process again?

The retail license basically says:

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.
c. Separation of Components. The components of the software are licensed as a single
unit. You may not separate the components and install them on different devices.

Hope this clarifies everything.

If it is already installed on one computer start Word and click the Office
button then click Word Options, Resources, About Microsoft Office Word then
the blue View the Microsoft Office License Terms. This will give version
specific information about the number of computers.

As others have said, for retail versions (FPP in the lower right of the
license key sticker) of the software you purchased it is normally a primary
device and then a portable device for the exclusive use of the primary user
of the primary device. Other countries than the US are possibly different.
