Creating an image of Win Server 2008 and restoring it to a different or similar hardware machine

I have this laptop that runs Win 2008 Server with Hyper-V. It has lots of other Hyper-V images in it and basically it is used as a lab server wherein multiple Microsoft server OS and apps are running. NOW, I need to make an image out of laptop and either

1)Restore it on another same laptop(same brand model, etc). I have seen IT do this that they have multiple the same brand/model of laptop and they just install the same ghost image. Not sure how it is done

2)Restore it to a different server hardware like a dsktop or something.

How do I do this? Is TI 2010 with the plus pack, the right software to do this? I just bought them. If not, which one and how do I accomplish what I need?

Thanks so much
