Hi, All

How many computers will MS allow XP Professional (Academic Edition) be
installed on?

For that matter, what are the differences between the regular and Academic
Edition veresions of XP?

IS there an "academic" version of XP? There's an academic version of
/Office/ but not of the OS AFAIK.....

Pro Upgrade only. MS sell Home Upgrade (not academic) to the academic market too.

Answered in basic.
When posting to multiple groups the same message, do a cross-post by putting
all the groups on the address box separated by a comma (,). You will then
see the replies to your message from any group you listed on the address
box.
You should post to only relative groups and limit the number to a reasonable
number.
