Title: Microsoft changes licensing rules

...or is it a zebra changing its spots. Oh well, I heard about an earthquake in California yesterday but none reported in Redmond.

If you don't own any MS apps, like me, there is no need to read the previous text.

Move along, please, nothing to see here.

Since I had recently purchased MS Office 2011, this is a welcome change... now installing on more than one computer. Since I have an iMac and a MBP for travel, this helps.

(I never thought i would say “good news” from MS)

It doesn't change how many computers you can install it on at one time though; office 2013 still can only be installed on one Mac as there is now no "Home and Student" edition.
