If you have a 6.50 Academic license you are not licensed to upgrade that to
7x.  You must ask for a 7x Academic License, which gets you a License Server
installation.  If you don't have that (and the attendent instructions) you
have not been granted an Academic license for 7x and should not be
attempting to install it on multiple machines.

See the News page articles on the 7x upgrade, especially the FAQ on 7x
updates. Read that carefully to avoid problems.  Note that 7x cannot be
ghosted as each unique SN/Activation key pair is locked to one and only one
SystemID.
