Chosen solution

The file location is "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles". Simply copy that, throw it on a flash drive, and then move it to the same location on the new machine.

I think Firefox also has accounts that back up your data and allow you to transfer it from device to device? I might be wrong on that.
