Jim, slight correction to your post. You are correct for MS Office Student
& Teacher version of Office 2003 (which is equivalent to the Office 2003
Standard version, not Pro.) It is not correct for MS Windows XP PRO
(Operating System) Academic licensing. It can only be installed on one
computer with the restrictions that Carey described.
