I think three is the magic number and software companies are starting to see that. Personally, we have two laptops and a desktop that I really care about, and a few other PC's that are running legacy version's of Windows or Linux. So three of my computers are all that I really care to upgrade. I think it would be truly awesome if Microsoft did what some antivirus companies are starting to do: 1 license is valid on 3 PC’s.

I would hope that the additional licenses would be for full versions and not just upgrades for the other versions. If so, I would buy at least 1 additional license even though I currently have only one system. This would be great news for multiple pc households.

I would upgrade if the price was right. That's goes double for upgrading multiple PCs.
