i really wish there was support for a setiqueue application, that was far superior to bonic.

Thats right, but i did it by copying the whole data directory from a slow machine to a faster machine (using the same boinc versions).  ;D

Theoretically it's possible to seperate the units but thats a hell of a job with that creapy .xml layout and all those different configurations

Warning !!!!
If you have two different GPU cards on the two PC, may be the GPU WUs abort when you transfer the directory !!!
This is quite similar with a situation I had some time ago, when I changed the GPU card while the computer had  an unfinished GPU WU.
The result was the abort with an error.
So it's better to terminate the GPU WU and then transfer the directory
