Windows 7 forum: Windows 7 Pro (Company Store purchase ) question...

Probably not. If you bought this copy of Windows in some retail store, then you should probably take it back because clearly they shouldn't have sold it to you. But unless this is a multi-user license package, you're allowed to use it on one computer at a time. If you want to use it on another computer, you must remove it from the first computer prior to installing it on the next one.

And if you have to ask whether or not it's a multi-user license, then odds are extremely good it's not. But you should be able to call the Microsoft activation phone number and they will most likely be able to tell you what kind of license it is.

The software selection at the company store is also available to other Microsoft-related individuals, which until recently included Microsoft MVPs as well. The reduced prices enabled me to build a nice collection of those NFR stickers myself.

The license is the same as the single-license retail version, with the exception that you may not resell the software at a later date. Thus, you may only install one instance of it at a time; you must purchase a separate license for each computer.
