Transferring Office 2003 to new Laptop

I've used all three of my licenses and would like to install Office on my new
laptop. I'm willing to remove it from a prior computer. Do I simply uninstall
it from one machine and this will some way give me back a license opportunity
for the new machine? Thanks

Essentially you are correct. You should be able to uninstall and then
install on the computer (unless it was OEM software). If you run into
problems activating over the Internet, you can call MS to transfer the
license.

What number would you call to swap the license if the old machine is burned?

Thanks

Don't know - but these are the instructions from the help file:

"you can register by telephone by following the instructions in the Office
Activation Wizard."
