Hi,
Your license is active, you should have received an email with instructions.
You can share your license between PC and laptop by deactivating it on your PC and activating it on your laptop, provided you wait 60 minutes in between for the backend databases to synchronize.

Yes, this should work, but don´t forget to deactivate octane before you go to work.

What a great news
Its wonderfull to deactivate on one computer and activate on another one ! I've a laptop with a small gt220 and will received soon my new gtx 460 for my old Hp workstation, and 3D is just a hobby for me, so it will be more affordable for me than buying one license for each computer.
Thanks again for your work and this very affordable renderer !
