    XP Home Question

    I am building three machines soon. Can I use one copy of XP on all three machines? I have a copy now that I used a one machine. Can i use it on a new one with a new MB. Two of the three will have new MB's. I don't know if that has everything to do with it.......but I want to go to SATA, but don't want to get three xp os's. I'm not clear on the activation of XP and all that jazz.

    Please advise.

    You need one copy of XP for each system you have. You can NOT use one copy for three machines.

    Thanks, so is the OEM copy for $89.00 or so the best way to go for three copies? I know NewEgg has it for $264 or so for the 3 pack. Is that the best value?
