Do I need to delete 16?

No. Different versions of Vegas Pro can exist quite happily on the same computer.

But be aware that some FX extras that may have shipped as part of a bundle with a previous VP version may not work in VP17 because many of those FX extras are license-locked to the VP version that they came with.

I assume then if I need the disc space I can delete 16 from my desktop? Can I then load 16 to my laptop? I have the DVD version.

Yes, absolutely.

Yes, absolutely. You can have Vegas Pro (though not VP 365) installed and activated on 2 devices at the same time. Nonetheless, it may be worth de-activating the current installation of VP16 from your current computer before uninstalling - or you can do that via My Products on your My Account on Vegas Pro's website.

Please note this:

"How many computers can I use VEGAS Pro on?
You can use VEGAS Pro (14.0 and later) simultaneously on 2 devices. There are 2 ways to deactivate a device so you can activate a different one:

Visit your MAGIX account > My Products > Show More Details > Deactivate. This option can be used only once a month.

From the VEGAS Pro Help menu choose Deactivate the Software on this PC. This option can be used as often as you wish. An internet connection is required."
