Default Lost Installation Disk

I'm posting this question for my sister, who just purchased a laptop for her
DH who is leaving for Afghanistan next week.

She didn't buy Office because she was told she had up to 3 licenses with her
Office 2000 Pro on her desktop. Problem is she doesn't have the installation
disks, just the license number. How can she get this program loaded to the
laptop?

Without the disks she can't. Also, Office 2K Pro did not allow 3
simultaneous installations on 3 different computers. Only a maximum of 2.

Find the disk as it is no longer available from Microsoft.

In addition, you can download the free program Open Office from
www.openoffice.org and use it without problem for most Microsoft Office
Program data files.

First I'm not aware of any three license version of Office 2000 Pro ever
being sold. Secondly without a CD she isn't even able to RE-install it
on the desktop should the need arise. Looks like she will need to
purchase a current version of Office for the laptop if it needs to be on
it. They say amazon.com has good prices and you get the install media.
So I'd suggest shopping there.
