Two weeks ago I purchased XP Professional Upgrade ( from Win98)and have
installed and activated on my machine. I installed on my wife's machine
today. So now I am being told that I need to buy another license at the same
price I paid less the cost of the CD... just for her. Wow,that is an
expensive alternative. I understand the problem with piracy but gimme a
break. Two licenses for a home network of two machines. Is this the only
way that I can have XP on both machines?
