Default instal same pro tools on two computers?

hi, i'm sure this question was already asked and answered, but i didn't get a real answer digging the web since two days.
my question is:
is it possible to install the same pro tools on two different computers?
i recently received a Mbox2 factory with pro tools LE 8 and i bought a laptop i haven't received yet.
so i'd like to know if i can uninstall my pro tools 6.4, get off my digi 001 and install my brand new software on my home pc and later on my laptop when it will arrive.

2nd question: same with the factory plugins and ignition pack.

hope i'm clear it's been a long time since i last wrote in english...
thanks

Yes, you'll just have to move your interface and ilok to whichever pc you're using.

Wow, you are really going to see some huge improvements going from PT 6.x to PT 8!! Enjoy. Be sure to get the 8.0.1 update and the CS1 if you need it.

You might consider getting an MBox Mini for your laptop, it doesn't really cost that much more than version 8. Then you'll have two interfaces with V8 on each computer!

So is it better to buy an MBox Mini c/w PTLE 8 instead of just upgrading to PTLE 8?

Can I then use PTLE 8 on both my computers as long as either the 002R or MBox Mini interface is plugged in ?

I badly need an upgrade to PTLE 8 Still stuck on PTLE 7

Would not mind an MBox Mini for portable use
