I've bought a brand new OEM copy of Windows XP Home - is it legit to use this on my 2 home PCs?

Thanks. I won't do it but what would stop me from doing so?

[Curly]

spose MS thinks windows genuine advantage/and product activation will stop most people from installing on more than one comp, oh and that new one that installs as a critical update if you leave auto updates on and phones home every time you boot the comp.
