I know with the older versions, it did allow you to install 3DSMAX on multiple machines for the purposes of network rendering, which does NOT require a hardware lock. With the older, hardware-locked versions of 3dsmax, you needed a hardware lock for each machine where you were actually going to be using the software for designing the animation, but could install on as many as you wanted when it came time to split up the rendering work. So, in a nutshell...

Installed 3dsmax + hardware lock = full version
Installed 3dsmax + no hardware lock = net render workhorse only
