I have a Dell Dimension 4550 that came with Windows XP Pro installed. I just inherited a Dell Dimension 4300 that came with Windows ME installed and I would like to install XP Pro and network the 2 computers together. The product code label on the 4550 reads as follows: "Windows XP Professional 1-2 CPU"
Does this mean I acan install on 2 computers?
Can I use the XP "reinstalation disc" from my 4550 to install on my 4300?

No, not and stay within the terms of the EULA. The 1-2 CPU means a dual processor, not two processors on two computers.
