TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
John is correct, I wasn't asking specifically about HOW to install
multiple versions when a program is "bound" to one computer, but
that's definitely part of the question, depending on the software.
My thanks to those of you who pointed out that some licenses allow the
same user to install on multiple computers, so long as it isn't used
in both sites at the same time. I'd pretty much made a blanket
assumption that it wasn't allowed, so will read each agreement from
now on (ukkk).
