I'm not quite sure if that's true, Barry. It seems as if Karim only wants
Office X in any case, so your instructions are perfect, and the most
appropriate ones under the circumstances. But I don't think that people who
for some reason still might need to boot back and forth between OS 9 and OS
are doing anything improper keeping both Office 2001 and X on their
machines. Thousands and thousands of people did this during the long
transition of OS 10.1 into a full functioning OS. I never heard a whisper
that this was improper. In any case, almost everyone now will want to stay
in OS X full time, all their apps now having OS X versions.

Don't forget that even in this case your license does allow you to run the
same copy of Office v. X on one desktop and one laptop machine. It is not
restricted to "one machine".
