As long as you purchase FP 2002 and 2003 separately (not part of an Office
package or as an OEM from your computer's manufacturer), you can do this.

Uninstall 2002 from your computer, install 2003. When the person who gets
the 2002 sets it up, he/she will have to use the phone activation option.
They can expalin that they are the second owners, yada-yada-yada.
