Licenses do vary, but it seems to me that for *operating systems* the rule is one copy for one machine. Borland allows their applications and languages to be used on more than one machine (but one at a time) and even MS has granted a similar privilege for WINDOWS 3.0 (but you have to be holding their proof of license card in your teeth while typing.) But last I saw, MS-DOS was strictly a one-for-one deal. Disclaimer: My copy of 5.0 is in the clutches of UPS, so I have not had a chance to review the license with my l*wy*r. I am not a l*wy*r. I do not work for Microsoft. My son does not work for Microsoft, and he's too young to be a l*wy*r. Microsoft has lots of l*wy*rs. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Roy Schmidt | #include <disclaimer.h> Indiana University | /* They are _my_ thoughts, and you can't Graduate School of Business | have them, so there! */
