Status: offline 		Wondering my Son wants to get a game going PBEM. Do we have to own two copies if we live in the same house. He was going to use his laptop and I the PC. Can I legally install my copy to both?

Cheers

But both computers in the house can have it installed (the one copy you purchased) if you guys want to play solo games is what he is saying. The only way to play comp vs comp in the same house is via PBEM, which means 2 copies would have to be purchased.

Status: offline 		Ok roger that. I know in the past that has not been the case but good to know. There is a difference between PBEM and PBEM++ or so I thought.
