I just installed and registered my copy of the panther upgrade package on my G4. Can I now install it on my wife's G4 tower? She has jaguar but was not eligible for the cheaper upgrade.

giving people illegal advice usually isn't considered polite. If he's got one copy of Panther, he's only allowed to install it on one machine. A lot of people install it on more anyway, but they're not supposed to.

his link was probably pointing to the panther "family pack" license:

* Family Pack Software License Agreement allows you to install and use one copy of the Apple Software on up to a maximum of five (5) Apple-labeled computers at a time as long as those computers are located in the same household and used by persons who occupy that same household. By "household" we mean a person or persons sharing the same housing unit such as a home, apartment, mobile home or condominium. This license does not extend to students who reside at a separate on-campus location or to business or commercial users.
