Actually terrister gave you the best option. My daughter and I have the same laptop. When her's breaks, I swap drives while I fix hers. When her drive went up, rather than fresh install all the programs, I just cloned my drive onto her new drive. It's really nice having two of the same laptops. When you do the cloning, there's no activation, no having to be online for 100 or so updates, it simplifies life incredibly
