When you purchase, you get an activation key. It's an alpha-numeric string (iow, a bunch of letters and numbers), 26 characters long IIRC. Write it down, save a text file to a flash drive, just record it some way or other. Even if your computer blows up, all you have to do once you get it working again is d/l the latest PP version & install it. Early into the install you'll be asked to enter the key. Do so and waa-la, the program will be working.
So don't worry, go ahead & grab the discount. Just keep the key someplace besides on the computer!
