I'll be doing the exact same thing in a few days only I plan to use a USB 2.0 flash drive or an external HD to transfer the Library folder to a new laptop.

I'm guessing I'll have to manually add my customized plug-ins to Calibre on the new machine? I thought I'd read of a way to copy over with plug-ins included a while back, but danged if I can find that post now that I need it
