As far as the legality of "moving" software goes, it's fine,
provided it's removed/disabled on the old PC when done.  There are
protections under US copyright law for this sort of thing.  (See US
Code, Title 17, Chapter 1, Section 117.
http://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap1.html#117)

  I'm aware of the fact that many "licenses" claim to prohibit it
anyway.  Licenses claim a lot of things they don't actually have the
legal power to enforce.  Microsoft can put "Buy using this software,
you must name your firstborn child 'Bill'" in their EULA, but it has
all the legal force of a sysadmin's damn.
