 Yes, simply zip the 'python' folder in .qgis on your machine and unzip 
 it, in \.qgis\, on the target machines.

 Notes (for Windows OS):
 - After a QGIS installation, the folder ..\..\.qgis\python does not 
 exist. It is created only when you download a python plugin.
 So you will have to create it yourself.

 - Do not forget the plugins in \apps\qgis-1.6\python\plugins as well. 
 They should be installed by default anyway, but check they are all 
 there.

 Regards,
 Benoit
