I know this question has been posed before but I didn't give it a thought. Simply, can I have an install at work and at home and transport my security key?

legally, no...
Not true. By law, any software that limits its use can only limit that use to not more that one, or some specified number, of applications running simultaneously, not how many installations can be made.
You are free to install it on any number of machines.
With Flexi, if you have the hasp key on one machine and have Flexi installed on any number of other machines that are networked with the machine that has the key you can run Flexi on any machine in the network. One iteration at a time. All you have to do is run Production Manager on the machine with the key. Then any networked machine can run Flexi.
I do this every day. I have one machine in my house and one in my shop. They are networked together by virtue of both being connected to the router that's connected to my satellite modem. The shop machine has the key. I run Production Manager in the shop and Flexi in my house.
I also use VNC, a freely available package, so as long as the shop machine is powered on I can start Production on that machine from my house machine. With VNC and the normal Windows file sharing facility I can and do treat both machines as one virtual machine.
I do most all layout and design work on my house machine and use the shop machine merely to drive my plotter and printer.
