it depend on how many licences you purchased. If your friend bought twelve licences (ie with twelve different product keys) with his business cd then he can install it on twelve pcs legally if not it will still install just it wont be legal (but will still work and provide full functionality with the option to download all updates) just depends on how honest you are and how much you care!!
