I went through the installation twice, and the serial number is only an
option to have it handy for you when you call their tech asst line.  I as
a matter of fact, didn't use the number.  In the commercial version, you do
not have to record the serial number into the help screen.  (I think that is
where it shows up).
Two questions:
     1) What does the educational version cost, and what CAN'T it do that
     the regular version does (you may not know this, but I'm curious)
     I upgraded from 5.0 for the $87 +.
     2) Is it upgradable, if it is not the equivalent to the normal 5.1?

I had it on an XT with Intel's AboveBoard 286 (1 meg expanded) and had no
problem installing it. The board requires Intel's EMS driver (ver 4.0)
