yes you can.  Microsoft let's you install windows on the same computer as many times as you want.

Nope. That's not true. Your information is incorrect.
What I meant (and should've written) is that you can install it, but not activate it, as many times as you want.

Actually, I believe you can install it as many times as you want, but activation will not work after a certain number of times.

I think you have the right to X activations for each 6 months

From my research it is actually something like 4 activations per Serial Number.
