I think the only user settings you will need are in your user account.  
If you create a user account on the new computer with the same name as 
your TiBook user account (or accounts if you had more than one user), 
you can start the AlBook up in target mode and just drag each user 
folder from your TiBook to replace the ones you created on your AlBook. 
  You might also need to drag applications from the TiBook backup to the 
AlBook, but AFAIK all your user settings are in the account you log in 
to.

When my school laptop was returned to Apple for repairs, it came back 
without any of my files, but all I had to do was drag the "Teacher" 
account from my backup onto the newly formatted hard drive, and 
everything (mail settings, etc.) worked exactly as before.
