    If you get microsoft office university, the four year subscription, can it be used on one mac and one PC. I have a mac but my mom has a PC and was hoping it could be used on both or are they specific to PC and mac? Thanks

    THink the licence is for one instance of use, so only on one device

    The license is for 1 user with 2 installations - Mac and Laptop, PC and PC, Mac and PC, Mac and Mac etc etc etc are all valid. You can have 2 installations of any combination of Office 2013 for Windows or Office for Mac 2011. When Mac 2014 launches you will be able to install that instead (same story for Office 2016). You can also have unlimited installations on mobile devices (iOS/Droid/Windows Store Apps) and web access (eg. office.com web-based apps)
