multi-license windows xp upgrade packs

[paul]

i have a four computers [four children] at home and want
to upgrade them all to windows xp. apart from buying 4
upgrade packs [an expensive option especially here in the
UK] is there a way of buying a multi-use version of the
upgrade pack? i am presuming the "authentication" process
is designed to stop me from putting the upgrade on more
than one pc.

any suggestions?

thanks

Hi Paul,

You can do it with one copy of the Upgrade disk and a volume license, =
but it won't save you all that much. See:
