Well, here's some stuff from the back of the MS-DOS 5 Upgrade box I've
got on my lap:

  Install easily.
    Whether you have one computer or one thousand to upgrade, MS-DOS
    version 5.0 Upgrade is the best choice for convenience, security and
    reliability.
    * Upgrade previous versions of DOS (version 2.11 or later) to MS-DOS
      operating system version 5.0
    * Installs quickly, even from a network, across different PC hardware
    * Is network-ready
    * Is supported directly by Microsoft, making it easy for your whole
      company to standardize on one version of DOS.

This whole thing leads me to belive that *if* you're licensed for a
copy of DOS for each machine you upgrade, you can use the upgrade as
many times you want on as many of your machines as you want.
