LOL , Its a good idea to put it on your second comp , I did the same , I fine the latest version RC2 build 5744 working the best so far , I did downloaded from the net which took just over a hour to download , I would guess they ( Microsoft ) are getting really busy with beta and the finale release , I hope by then they will change their license agreement
