John, Thanks. I know on their student edition you can install on up to 3 computers on the one license. Please let me know what you find out. Also, I believe 2003 was prior to the ribbons, correct?

Outlook is included in Office 2003 Standard and Pro. 2. As far as I have been able to find, Office 2003 is the minimum that is officially supported on Win 7. Office XP can be installed, but has reported issues with no work-around. 3. As far as I know, it can only be installed on one computer. But, once I open the package, I will have my wife read the license to verify that fact. If I recall, some MS products do allow you to install on more than one computer, as long as not more than one of the copies is being used concurrently. Not a problem for me, as I will only have one computer running Win 7. Next new computer is going to be a Mac.
