Win7 install limits?
I currently have Vista64 and have pre-ordered Win7 pro upgrade now I also am planning a new PC build either around the Win7 release time OR I might see what the hardware industry has up it's sleeve for the beginning of next year. After lots of reading I am hearing about 32nm CPU's and vid cards in that range also and of course the Intel i9 series and so on...big changes coming soon and it might be best for me to wait a little bit before sinking $$ into a build in 2-3 months.
With that being said and here is my real question...will I be able to upgrade my current Vista machine when W7 arrives in the mail and then use the same copy/key/license to install on my new build when I eventually do it? Basically how many times can I install W7 on a totally different PC? I think 3 has been the limit with XP and Vista and that would actually be great and I would not have any issues. If there is a limit of just 1 machine then I won't upgrade my current machine to it and I will just hold onto it till my new build is up and ready. Thanks in advance.
