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)
Ignore the argumentative nature of this poster. He is old and can't engage in meaningful dialog very long.

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. sad.gif
