Let's say a guy was to figure out how to install Windows (from the same CD) to a single hard drive several times, and each system is independent from the others, is it legal?

I think that would be technically legal (since only one copy could actually be ran at a time).

I don't think that was the question Hajman. From my reading of the question, the originator asked if you could legally install one Windows CDs on multiple workstations (nothing in the post intimated that they would not be used concurrently, only that they were independent of each other whatever that means, I would guess that they were not networked, I could be wrong). From my understanding of the MS licensing agreement that would be a no-no.

B2K, your take?
