Windows 8 System Builder

Hi all,

Just finished new build and using Win8 90 day trial. All working well.
I am going to do another build for lad next door. If I buy the above software version, can I install it in both machines or would I have to buy 2 copies?

Have searched deeply for an answer but wording always seems to be misleading and ambiguous.

No doubt has been asked before so apologies !!

All help appreciated.

Two machines require two licenses.

I understand. Thank you for reply.

All the Windows versions certainly make life complicated !!

Not really. Windows has always been 1 license, 1 PC.

In this instance it's pretty straight forward. Beyond that, Microsoft licensing is a dark art.
