Can I install a Dell Windows XP installation CD that requires a COA by getting the COA elsewhere?

Here's the story. I want to use a Dell Windows XP installation CD that requires a Certificate of Authenticity on my Mac. I have a Dell laptop and I was wondering if I can just take the CD and install it on my Mac. I would be running Bootcamp. Would Windows recognize that the COA is already in use on another computer or would this work?Can I install a Dell Windows XP installation CD that requires a COA by getting the COA elsewhere?Microsoft will look the other way if you install your OS on two or three coputers, I have done it before, but be careful or you will run out of activations and will not be able to use the disk without a new key.



If you are comfortable being a pirate, look for antiwpa v3 on the internet. It will safely disable activation.
