You can't transfer an account to another computer, but you can transfer the
data in Outlook to another PC. See this:
http://www.slipstick.com/emo/2002/up020605.htm#movetonew2002 It's written
for Outlook 2002 but it applies to 2007 as well.

Different target audiences. Notepad is friendier than Word, too. If you
find Outlook Express does eveything you need, then using Outlook is probably
pointless. Use the tool best suited to your need.

You cannot transfer accounts, at least depending on your o/s there may be
save settings wizard, but this frequently causes problems.
All data is contained in the outlook data file , the *.pst
With outlook closed locate them (by default in a hidden folder) and copy
them.
PS only Outlook 2003 or 2007 can open a data file created in the default
outlook 2003/2007 format
