Can I use windows xp home on two computer with the same copy?

According to the EULA, no. Technically, of course. All you have to do is wait 120 days from when you installed it on one computer and then install it on another and MS will not be the wiser. From a moral point of view, when one considers that MS stole Windows from Apple, MS really doesn't have a hanky to cry into if you do it. In addition, MS has never taken a private individual to court for breaching the EULA so until they do, it is NOT illegal to install XP on two or more computers.
