Once you have the settings and plugins the way you want on one computer, you can copy the settings directory to the other computers. Also, when a plug-in gets updated, all Calibre installs will get notified. Same with new versions of Calibre. So really, it's very easy. If you need to copy the settings directory, just use a USB stick or microSD card. If you need an SD card, an adapter for the microSD card will do.

It's really very easy to keep the various Calibre installs with the same settings and plugins except if any of the computers need an older version.
