You have to have a separate copy of the game for each account. Sorry, no shortcuts.

No offense Nekojin, but I wanted to clarify...

The OP said he had separate accounts, which I believe is the key.

You can install the game (software) as many times as you want on as many PCs as you want... Licensing is at the Account level, that's what you are paying for.

Not sure how he would have gotten an account without getting the game (software), unless it was a ten-day pass, but Bliz provides two copies of the game in the CE for that situation anyway...

My $.02

I have the game on my desktop and laptop.

Yesterday my friend was home and we did some quest, he logged on with my laptop using his account info.

So yeah, technically it works.

I don't remember if you need a cd-key to create an account or not however.

You do need a seperate cd-key per account so you will still have to pay the 50 dollars per account.
