Question about Installing/Uninstalling Microsoft Office?
I am watching a copy of Microsoft Office 2003 on an online auction. The seller claims that the software was installed on three machines (the maximum number of installs allowed), but then was uninstalled when they upgraded to 2007. My question is, even though they uninstalled 2003, does Microsoft still have some sort of record that this software was installed and, therefore, will not allow any more installations even though it has been uninstalled? I obviously don't want to bid on something that isn't going to work, but I also don't want this person to get dinged for auctioning off useless software. I don't think they're doing it dishonestly. Thank you! I hope this makes sense!

- It makes perfect sense. The software WILL be useless to you. You are only allowed three installs PERIOD. You would have to purchase a new license and that will probably cost about what it would cost to buy it new. Office 97 is the only version that you can install an unlimited amount of times.
