Quick question... I just purchased the game. But I'll be going out of town for a few weeks and so I want to install it on my laptop while I'm gone. And then when I get back uninstall it from that and install it on my desktop. Will I have any issues with this? Thanks!
I would expect it to work since it is an online mmo. You dont have to put a license on the install of the software to install it. Your license it worked out online when you log in. You should be fine.
You shouldn't have any issues, I usually have most of my MMOs installed on 2 computers (laptop and desktop). There are no CD key/DRM issues you have to worry about as far as I know because everything is linked to your online account and not your individual computer.
Put it on both. I have no problem running it on my Desktop and Laptop. Of course I don't need to tell you that you can only be logged into one at any given time.
For some reason, the terms of use prohibit this. See section 2 which grants you a "royalty-free license to use one copy of the object code form of the Game for personal, non-commercial and lawful use on a single computer". I have no idea why they do this, as I know of no other MMO that does.
Perhaps if you download the client onto the other machine, you can argue that copy comes with its own license. But for some reason, Cryptic says you can't install the DVD onto two computers.

you can install it on both, or more, all you want. You need a active subcription to log into ANY MMO and only one login at a time so feel free to install away.

this sums it up, and you dont need to uninstall it before playing either
I have 2 copies on the same machine, one in vista 64 and one in win7 64
