In my case all apps worked...a HD is a 'total brian transplant' and OS  
X is truly universal install, all drivers for all supported systems  
are included, although this has changed with the advent of Snow Leopard.

Yes and no. Serial numbers, etc etc will have to be re-entered, since  
that info tends to live in preference files or Application support  
folders in ~Library and /Library.

iTunes, (and possibly other applications) uses the MAC address of the  
built-in ethernet for authentication of a computer, you'll have to re- 
register your computer with iTunes to play protected media.
