Default Moving Authorizations from Machine to Machine?

I have several MSDN products installed on my Old Vista Machine. I have a new
Vista Machine. Is there an easy way to move all the License Keys to the new
Machine? So I have to call MS for each one I want to reinstall?

Hi,

No, but it shouldn't be a hassle to just reinstall and reactivate as MSDN
licenses are usually good for multiple activations.

I've switched machines so much in the past several months I'm mostly out of
activations. I know I can call and its not a big deal to get a new one, its
just a time suck. Reading off 25+ digit numbers and the like. on well...

Thanks,
