Now a question: What are the implications regarding having two copies
of WinXP with only one license?
Thanks for any thoughts, jimbo
Go to Start >Run box type: WINVER , and hit enter. Then click on the
"End-User License Agreement" and read it. Your answer
lies in that agreement.
You can also open XP's "Help and Support" and type: EULA
and hit enter. Click on "Questions and answers about the EULA".

While technically 100% correct, it would be against strict interpretation of
the EULA.
As a side note - no one has really strictly interpretted the EULA and made
it stick on an individual basis. *grin*

That is about what I was thinking. I suppose MS could write the EULA
to require a second copy if a person booted up more than five times a
day or some such nonsense. But practical enforcement is another matter.
