Re: [Digital BW] Moving PS

Photoshop can only be installed on 2 computers. You cannot drag it to 
another computer. You have to un-install it as Adobe needs to be 
notified of it's non use on THAT computer. If you have a compete 
crash, as I did and could not un-install, you have to call adobe and 
they will get you going with out the un-install. Be sure to have your 
original full copy serial number handy, even it it as Photoshop 3 as 
they will ask for it.

Just my experience.
