Hello,
I've been playing WoW since Friday night (off & on) and I'm very
impressed. My question is, can I install WoW on a second pc in my house and play
the game from it? obviously loogged in on only 1 pc at a time.

Yes, I have it installed on 3 machines and can use any of them without
a problem. Couldn't say if thats entirely legal, but i'd be suprised
if I get taken away by the police tonight...

It's not only possible, it's even legal. The game-account is tied to a
person and not to the machine. What would be 'illegal' however is to
share the account with a friend and play alternating, although I doubt
Blizzard would ever make a case out of that.

To all intents and purposes, you can install it on as many machines as
you like; I doubt Blizz mind, because you can only use your account
from one machine at a time.
