authorization - de-authorization

I've got movie studio 14.0 platinum, and I believe I'm limited to authorization on 2 computers (which kind of sucks); I actually would like to have it on a 3rd for which I use in portable situations - is there a way to authorize the 14.0 platinum on a 3rd computer? If not, how often can I de-authorize on one, and authorize on another, so I can go between the 3 computers as necessary. I don't want to do it if all of a sudden I'm going to be prevented from authorizing. Anybody have any info on this? Thank you.

From the main FAQ : "You can use VEGAS Pro (14.0 and later) simultaneously on 2 devices. To deactivate a device so you can activate a different one, go to your MAGIX account > My Products > Show More Details > Deactivate. Older versions of Vegas Pro are licensed under a system (as previously used by Sony) which permits use on multiple computers by one user; after an unspecified number of installations on different or updated PCs you may need to contact support to reset your "installation count"."

http://www.magix.com/int/support/technical-support/ says under License verification: "Most MAGIX products are now outfitted with a P3 serial number and need to be registered and activated when they are launched for the first time following installation. Software with a P3 serial number cannot be started until this is done. Based on the registration and activation, the software is assigned to the device on which it was installed. You can change this device once a month through the MAGIX Service Center ."

Can someone confirm the last sentence? (If that's true and you'd need to change it more often, there's the current $39.99 offer to get another license of MSP 14 + MSP 15, when it comes out)
