Office 2007 Student Licences

I've got a retail CD of Office Home and Student 2007, as well Microsoft
Office Ultimate 2007, bought at a student discount as a download and backup
CD.

Office H&S says it is licenced for 3 PCs, but there is no such info on the
Office Ultimate pack, which is a plain cardboard sleeve.

Where can I find out what the licence is for this product?

If the Office Ultimate is a Retail version then in general, the Eula states
that you can install on ONE primary device, and one Portable device used by
the owner of the Primary device.
If it's OEM then it can only be installed on the first machine it is
installed on. YMMV....

AFAIK....

Check two places.

1. If on the cardboard sleeve there is a sticker giving the 25 character
activation code key, look in the lower right of that sticker. If the
letters FPP are there it is a retail purchase. If OEM then it is an OEM
purchase.

Retail purchases are licensed for a primary device and also a portable
device for the exclusive use of the primary user of the primary device. (MS
words but paraphrased.) If OEM only one device and it is forever tied to
the first device it is installed onto (device meaning computer.)

2. Install the Ultimate product onto one machine. Start Word, Click Office
Orb, Word Options, Resources, About and then the blue line "View the
Microsoft Office License terms."
