Can I use serial key of NIS 2008 to upgrade to NIS 2010?

Hello,

 

 I realised I have an unused Norton Internet Security 2008 installation media with the serial number lying around.

 

I haven't used NIS-products before , I got fed up with F-sec and I am now interested in switching to NIS.

 

I was thinking that would it be possible to use the serial from the NIS 2008 with the NIS 2010? Maybe get the NIS 2010 trial package from Internet and upgrade it to fully functional product with the NIS2008 serial?

 

The license is for a one computer only and it would be great if I could use this license and become familiar with NIS family and then, after finding the product solid, I could get NIS 2010 products to my other computers also.

 

BR,
