AFAIK, as long as you have the data cable that is linked to the software and the activation code, it will work fine on another computer. I have my AE loaded on two different laptops and share the one cable. Works fine.

Question does AE work like a regular code reader for other makes or do you need to buy the bundle for them? I've been looking at it and my best guess is that it is a regular code reader and if you buy the other bundles you get all the fancy stuff.

Yes... it's generic (neutered) until it has a bundle (juevos).

The package deal is not registered to a buyer, like a tune would be... it is registered to itself. So, sell the whole package and the registry works on the next Windows-based computer. Saying that, if you bought it when XP was the thing and the next owner pops it on a Windows 7 machine, that's when questions arise. I'd have those questions answered before risking a Buck$Zooka fiasco and frazzling a forum friendship.

Thanks, I actually just called AE and they told me that it can be transferred all the original owner has to do is send them an email telling them they sold it and give the email address of the new owner and everything will be transferred.

So add me to the list for the sale
