We don't have our XPe target licenses yet but I'm trying to plan out our
system commissioning plan and need to understand how the licensing works.
Will I be able to enter a range or list of licsense numbers in a TD file and
use that same TD file's built output for each of the target systems?
 
MS folks can correct me if need be, but I'm given to understand that
you only need enter 1 key when you run your build, and you're fine
(legally) as long as you have a license sticker on every machine using
the OS. XPe doesn't "phone home" (require activation), so you can
(technically) use the same key on all your machines -- and good thing,
too, or you'd probably have to manually enter a key on every unit after
you deploy your resealed image. Ick. Anyway, we've only actually
entered one of the keys we ordered and the rest are just going to sit
on the stickers on our products; I sincerely hope I'm in the right.
 
You're right Coderer.

Also, your Windows Embedded distributor can also answer these kinds of
licensing questions.
