Default Reinstalling PT on my new computer

I am running PT 7.3 with an Mbox 2 Mini on a Macbook (OSX 10.4.11), but I will be getting a penryn MacBook Pro (OSX 10.5 - Leopard) very soon. I have a few questions:

1. Am I going to be able to transfer Pro Tools to my new computer?
2. If so, can I use my existing authorization code?
3. Will the hardware (mbox) function properly?
4. Does Leopard support PT 7.4 on Macbook Pros yet, or am I stuck with 7.3 for now?

Any help on these issues is greatly appreciated!! Thanks.

Default Re: Reinstalling PT on my new computer

Wrong forum This should be in the Mac LE forum.

1) You can install PT on as many computers as you own-there is nothing to transfer your Mbox is the hardware dongle that allows LE to launch
2) You can use the same authorization code on all of the machines.
3) Not with Leopard-LE is not working with Leopard and a working version is probably a month or two away.
4) At the moment the only version of Pro Tools thats supported on Leopard is HD 7.4 and thats only supported on (I beleive) 8 core harperrtown Mac Pro's

I would hang on to that Macbook for a month or so.
