With the stand-alone versions, you were allowed to install it on as many
computers as you wanted, but you could only have it "active" on two
computers and you could only be using one copy at a time.
If you wanted it active on a third computer, you had to DE-activate it
on one of the existing computers.
I had CS5 on both my "desktop" & a laptop. I used it on the laptop when
I needed it while traveling and used the desktop version at home.
I installed the upgrade to CS6 extended on my "desktop" (the computer I
built as a dedicated Photoshop machine), but not on my laptop. I don't
think the laptop will run it well enough.
I'll have to get a newer, more powerful laptop; one that will allow more
than a maximum of 4GB RAM before it will run CS6.

So how many computers can I install a single license on? Would it be
possible to have it on my work computer (currently running CS5) AND my
home computer? I need to get a power supply for my home computer. It's
been so long since I've used it that I don't recall what versions I
have on there. I believe I have Lightroom 3 installed on it but have
yet to actually use Lightroom. Pretty sure I have Photoshop on there
also and think it may be the same licence/copy that I am using at
work.

I don't remember having to reinstall them going from 32bit PhotoshopCS5
to 64bit PhotoshopCS6 Extended.
You'll need Lightroom plug-ins for Lightroom.
AFAIK, the Creative Cloud software is resident on your computer just
like the older versions were. The only difference is they check in with
Adobe periodically to see if you've paid the rent on time and they might
not ask your permission before installing upgrades.
As long as you pay the rent, they should continue to work, last week's
Lightroom upgrade debacle notwithstanding.
The funny thing is, that if they changed the terms of cc just a little bit,
I'd happily jump on board. I'm already paying nearly that much in yearly
updates by buying a new version once a year. Rather than $10 a month for
everything, I'd be happy to buy stuff outright, and pay $5 a month for
ongoing upgrades to lightroom.
