    Installing on more than one machine


    Hi All,

    A quick search didn't provide the answer to this, but I'm curious if Win7 beta copies can be installed on more than one computer, or are they only good for a single machine?

    Thanks,
    Greg

    Yes up to 3 unless they changed it with a single key.

    There was only about 10-15 keys given out for the CPP testers which means they're universal.
    So if however many thousand people are using the same key i doubt your extra few machines will matter :)

    Right , and here's from the EULA:

    Windows 7 Beta EULA said:

    a. Software License. You may install and use any number of copies of the software on your premises to design, develop and test your programs for use with the software.
