Multi-use for Snow Leopard

[yarjarrar]

My brother and I both have early '08 macbook pros with Leopard and I was thinking about buying Snow Leopard. So I was wondering if I bought it, would my brother also be able to use it and update his too?
oops, double post

Yes. You should buy the family pack. The individual pack will work too, but that is not ethical or legal.

Ok, thanks

Technically, yes. It will work. OS X does not "phone home" a la Windows.

However:

SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR MAC OS X
Single Use, Family Pack and Leopard Upgrade Licenses for use on Apple-branded Systems
.
C. Leopard Upgrade Licenses. If you have purchased an Upgrade for Mac OS X Leopard license, then subject to the terms and conditions of this License, you are granted a limited non-exclusive license to install, use and run one (1) copy of the Apple Software on a single Apple-branded computer as long as that computer has a properly licensed copy of Mac OS X Leopard already installed on it.

It is less than 100% pure/clean/ethical, as per Apple's definition(s).
