    If you have legal copies and the keys to them, yes, it's legal, look at my systems specs.

    It depends on how you acquired the second OS.

    If you made a purchase of an upgrade DVD and the other OS is the system that you upgraded from, then no.

    If you purchased 2 full value OS then yes.
