Hi ldrki,

Whenever you install Office and activate it, part of the activation process includes validating the installation with MS, via the internet. Each time the product is activated on a new PC, one of your licence entitlements is used. If you use all of them, you won't be able to activate the installation on another PC unless you contact MS and convince them that you are not exceeding your licence entitlements (eg you've replaced a PC and want to use the product on the new one instead).
