Hi :)
I was sure Miro was right.  The last MS Eula i read was quite a long time ago and i vaguely 
remember it having all sorts of shocking things such as writer's not owning work they had done 
using the software and other stuff that just really shouldn't stand up in court.  Perhaps i got a 
joke one but i'm sure it was from the MS site.
Regards from
Tom :)

Not so. Extract from EULA for Office 2010:
TRANSFER TO A THIRD PARTY. The first user of the software may make a one-time transfer
of the software and this agreement, by transferring the genuine proof of license directly to a 
third
party. The first user must remove the software before transferring it separately from the licensed
device. The first user may not retain any copies of the software. Before any permitted transfer,
the other party must agree that this agreement applies to the transfer and use of the software. If
the software is an upgrade, any transfer must also include all prior versions of the software.
