When you use Desktop TurboTax, which you install from a CD or download to your own hard drive, you can prepare and e-file multiple returns for the cost of the software. You can e-file up to 5 Federal returns—more if you mail the additional ones.

You can install/download to multiple computers that you own, but no matter how many computers you use, the limit is five federal e-files in total.  That limit is an IRS limit--not a TurboTax limit.   It does not mean five per computer.  If you need to file more than five returns, the others can be prepared using the software, but they must be printed, signed and mailed.
