Can I just ask you two a quick Q? I have a licence for Microsoft Office Professional which I got at a good price when I had an academic email address. I would hope that if you cease to use one computer, you can install it on a new one (as it would be a bummer if your computer broke say 2 months after buying a licence). Do you know if you can? For e.g. if you uninstall it off the original computer can they tell you have done that so you can use the activation code again? Glad you liked that Xmas vid Charlie - I do!

Well, I've managed to do that Suzie....as long as you've still got the licence, all the authorisation and codes it should be transferable to another PC. You've paid for it so it should still be registered to you and therefore capable of being used on your PC.
