Where ever my life takes me...
I recently purchased a new MacBook Pro and just purchased the up to date version of snow leopard. What would happen if i tried installing snow leopard on two different Macs? Has anyone tried this when Leopard came out?

Well, we'd tell you off if you hadn't bought the rights to do that for starters ;) (The Up to Date program does give the option to Tallest Skil, though it seems unliekly if the OP is asking).
 
You mean Leopard, as Snow Leopard hasn't been released.

The official answer is that you should buy the family pack if you're putting it on multiple machines.

And one legal way to do it is

Multiple Qualifying Computers on a Single Invoice

If you purchased multiple qualifying systems on a single invoice, you can either (1) purchase a Single-User Upgrade Kit for each qualifying product, at a cost of £7.95*; or (2) purchase fewer Single-User Upgrade Kits and request the Right to Copy for the remaining qualifying products.

wouldn't that indicate the disc wasn't machine specific?
Family Pack mght work out best (and likley you could buy it before the up to date shipped to you as they're giving up to 3-4 weeks shipping time on it).
