The unfortunate thing is that XP will croak without all the drivers properly configured for the destination computer. Also, XP licenses that come with portables are not transferable.

Thanx...

I keep forgetting that most of laptops these days are the branded stuff and XP COA no CD installs which are restricted to that machine only.

It's doable with a retail XP version and a non-branded machine.

FYI
right now, MS is talking allowing only 1 transfer for the retail version of Vista.
