As you would have seen if you had read the User License Agreement you agreed to:
The Software must not be installed on more than one computer terminal at any one time, except that you may install it onto 2 computers (and no more than 2) if both computers are owned and kept by you, and you are the main user of both of them.

I do what I believe a lot of people do and have it loaded on my home computer and on a laptop I can take to Records Offices and the like. Only I use the license and only once at a time.

Further...summarising the remaining usage restrictions...

You may not install the software [...] if the intention [...] is that the Softare be used by [...] anyone other than yourself.

It's in the inside cover of the Quick Start Tutorial and bascally restricts use to the owner but no-one else. Interestingly it does not prevent concurrent use of the product by one person ... but stop already ... my eyes are glazing over... [rolleyes]
