If you own a retail version of Windows XP there are no restrictions on the number of times you can transfer the software from one computer to another. Well, that’s about to change for the worse in Vista, with only one lifetime transfer allowed! That limitation on retail licenses is a remarkable change. Previously, a retail license could be removed from one computer and reinstalled on another with no limits. Now, you get to reinstall one time and one time only.
