I installed my games on a USB drive so I could play on my desktop or laptop.
I had to enter the serial number on both the first time I opened the game on them.
The games load a little slower because the USB is not as fast as loading from an onboard disk drive but they run fine.
Currently have over 50 games loaded on a 250 GB USB drive.

As to the answer to your question, from the End License Agreement
A. Limited Use License – WDS grants the end user license for this Program for use on up to two (2) computers at any one time that you personally own. This normally constitutes a desktop and laptop computer.

So yes you can install your games on 2 pcs.

Frank,

I have the software installed on my laptop. When I am at home, my laptop sits on my desk with a large monitor connected via HDMI. Then I use both monitors. For example, I have the game map on the large screen and emails concerning the battle open on my laptop screen. It's really nice to work with two monitors. When I travel, I simply disconnect and take my laptop.

I asked this question at WDS and was told by them that it is allowed on any and all PCs that you own. And I love that.

EDIT:

I failed to read the post quoting the License agreement before I posted. Obviously, if they say 2 pcs that you own, then it is two and I misunderstood the response I got. Never had to install on more than 2, so thankfully I have not broken their rule!
