Default Swaping GW between computers

I guess basically what I want to know is first off, is it possible to swap GW between different computers, and secondly what do I have to do for it.

I am getting a new computer, and I need to take it from this computer to the new one.

You just need to install the client onto your new pc. The account can be accessed from anywhere with the client. ^.^

Oh, I thought there was some activation code or something and that it could only be downloaded once, Thanks for the fast reply.

The activation code is only for your account, not for the client. I've done this, myself, when my old pc broke

Since GW installs all the files it needs into the folder you specify during install, you can actually copy that entire folder onto a DVD, and then copy it onto the new computer. That way you have all your screens, templates, and importantly, you updated GW.DAT file.
