    Hello everyone.

    I have a new notebook computer and an old notebook computer.

    I have a new notebook that comes with a window 7 pro 64bit which will be my host or Primary OS and i intend to set up a virtual machine. My existing old notebook a mac (dual boot) have a licensed Window 7 pro 64bit and a license Microsoft office 2010. I intend to sell the Old Mac, so will erase all files and softwares installed and set it like a factory setting.

    Can I still use the old license window 7 pro ( as a VM ) and mircosoft office 2010 in my old computer to my new computer? i still have the CD/DVD and serial number.

    I recon they are retail versions, so yes, you would be able to use them.
