I'm new to XP. I have a network in my home with 4
computers attached. I just bought a desktop and a laptop
for my son for college. I need to purchase Microsoft
Office to be installed on these new machines. Do I have
to purchase two copies of office or can I install one copy
on both machines.

I'm not good at reading the Office End User License Agreement ... you
probably out to read it yourself and decide for yourself.

I do know that for your son he's probably better off waiting until
reacing college where he can get at greatly reduced price (probably) an
academic license either from the college or the local bookstores.
 
I have read on the Ng's more than once that it is permissible to
install Office xp on both a desktop an laptop computer.


That's correct.

(How it
makes the distinction is above me.)


It doesn't. Not every rule is enforced automatically.
