Hi everyone
need some advice again.. so Have got the Microsoft Office 365 Home for 5 Devices thing and loving my New WIN 10 Desktop from here BUT looking to sell my MacBook Pro ..then it occurred to me can I put this Office package on the MacBook? or do you need to buy one Package for MacBook as well as this one for my WIN 10 Desktop??
Or will they just see that its a MacBook if I log on to my Microsoft Account and try to Install Office from my Subscription? or is that just wishful thinking lol

Unfortunately, and I can’t believe it’s taking this long for MS to integrate it cross platform, it’s a different product for Mac:

I could be off the mark, but it looks like you can use the same licence for PCs and Macs?

However, the family version, Office 365 Home, is far better value. This costs £79.99 a year for up to six users, including friends. Everyone gets their own terabyte of storage, up to 6TB in all. For a family of four, it’s only £20 per year each. If you can share the cost, it’s terrific value, because each user can install the full Office on multiple PCs and Macs.

Obviously you can't install it on your Mac and then sell your mac advertising it as having office as that's piracy with added bonkers.
