How do I update Windows on my family's four computers? wrtr83 12/15/2008 6:13:02 PM I want to buy something that allows me to update my family's four computers at once and not have to pay for four new Microsoft packages (since I already purchased the 2003 packages for the four computers). How do I do this? At one time, it was easy. Microsoft just asked me how many home-computer update licenses I wanted; I told them. Then I had permission to download the updates on each computer. Thank you.
