+==Can I use one license of Rhino 7 on multiple computers?==

 ==What if I want to install using single-computer licensing on multiple computers?==
-You'll need a separate license key for each computer. Rhino 5 allowed more than one validation per single-user license key. Rhino 6 does not. Rhino 6 adds Cloud Zoo Personal license management so you can take turns using a single license on multiple computers with an occasional Internet connection.

-==If I upgrade from Rhino 5 to Rhino 6, can I still use Rhino 5?==
+==If I upgrade from Rhino 6 to Rhino 7, can I still use Rhino 6?==
-Yes. When you upgrade, you are extending your license to give you access to Rhino 6 features - you are not adding a new license. This means that you can use Rhino 6 and older versions of Rhino on the same computer. You may not use Rhino 5 on one computer while someone else uses the Rhino 6 upgrade on another.
+Yes. When you upgrade, you are extending your license to give you access to Rhino 7 features - you are not adding a new license.

+==If I put my Rhino 7 Upgrade license in the Cloud Zoo, can I still install Rhino 6?==
-Yes, Rhino 5 can be installed on one computer, even if it has been upgraded to Rhino 6.
+Yes, Rhino 6 can be installed, even if it has been upgraded to Rhino 7. Make sure to have both on the Zoo or Cloud Zoo.
 ==Can I put my Rhino 5 license in the Cloud Zoo?==
 No. Rhino 5 does not support the Cloud Zoo.
-==If I put my Rhino 5 and Rhino 6 Upgrade Licenses in the Zoo, what happens?==
+==If I put my Rhino 6 and Rhino 7 Upgrade Licenses in the Zoo, what happens?==
-You'll need Zoo 6 SR10 (or higher) to support Rhino 6 license keys. The Zoo will group your Rhino 5 and Rhino 6 Upgrade keys into a license "cluster", and will make sure only one is in use at any given time. A user who runs both Rhino 5 and Rhino 6 from the same computer will use only one license.
+You'll need Zoo 7 SR 7 (or higher) to support Rhino 7 license keys.
