The GoBe Stuff is actually not "per-user" they have a sort of family license.
One copy for the entire house.  They also allow you to use it on your work
machine and give you a certificate to present to your workplace to prove
that it is okay.

I've been thinking about plunking down the money for this... I saw a REALLY
good review of that "suite" on Ars Technica about a month ago.

I put suite in quotes because it's actually just one application.  Not
all different office programs, no OLE bullsh*t, just one file one program,
mix and match however you like.  I LIKE that idea.
