Thanks, I thought each device would be different.

The sticky part can be that there is a limit to how many computers they allow for each account and it doesn't matter if you de-authorize the old computer, it still is counted (Amazon does things differently). An additional slot for an authorization will eventually be allotted to you, or if you have a particularly bad run of luck and go through a lot of hard drives or something, you can phone Adobe and plead your case for another slot.
I did know this and it's a low number for Adobe. I have a laptop, two desktop computers, two tablets, a phone, and a couple of ereaders. And this is only current devices - I've had two other laptops and another ereader. But I guess most people don't have that many.
