Which is why I believe I'm not breaking the law by running one licensed copy of NT on 2 different machines, laptop & workstation, because to my mind it constitutes fair use the same way you can copy an audio CD for personal use.
I thought that was still breaking copyright?
I think I remember reading a court case where the copying of LPs (I think you're too young to remember those Gary;) to tape was considered fair game.
This was probably also before the "Copyright, Designs and Patents Act (1988)" came into force though. Statutes tend to "trump" pre-existing case law.
