Understood. The .mac was just how I'd do it.

You can, of course, copy the iMac to the PowerBook and back, and you'd likely do it with FireWire target disk mode, as you indicated. As long as you're OK with basically whacking the "other" machine when you do it, then you can either erase or use Smart Update: your choice.

I do think the .mac way is the way to go. You can get it for a pretty significant discount -- like $60/yr or something -- and while it is money you don't *have* to spend, if it's likely to take an hour or two of your time to do this, that's worth $$$ too! (Not to mention what happens the first time you make a mistake...)
