Suppose I purchase a portable with XP Home...I already have portable with XP Pro and tons of programs installed. Can I "export" XP Pro to new portable? What about applications?
 
You'll be sorry trying to do anything but use the files and settings
transfer wizard. Trying to do a ghost or similiar to the new machine with an
existing XP installation will just make it as flakey as can be. It'll be
looking for all that hardware in the old machine. Not to mention you'll be
violating the license agreement with Microsoft. I have had a few clients get
busted by Billy for hot copies with a nasty pay up or I'll persue legal
action letter in the mail. Luckily, I didn't do the installs.
