XP home -> pro upgrade retail cd second pc new key??

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

I have already obtained a retail Educational use xp pro upgrade cd. I am
eligible for the Ed version. I have upgraded my desktop from home to pro,
but want to do the same on my laptop. Obviously i will need to pay for and
obtain a new key. How do i do this and how do i make it work with my
existing CD?

You can not get another CD key for any Educational editions. Nor do these
versions qualify for upgrades. Educational editions are sold at a greatly
reduced price to qualified students.
