I posted this in another thread, and I'll double up here at someone's recommendation.
I'm home generally quite a bit, and do quite a bit of gaming there. However, in the course of my life, I also have to travel quite a lot, and the only option for travel gaming happens to be my laptop. The desktop is my rock-steady workhorse machine, but unwieldy for travel purposes. My question is a simple one.
Is it possible to use those lovely promotional codes on the included rave cards packaged with the game to load onto more than one machine, or will I have to spend my hard-earned shekels repurchasing material I already got access for once?
Someone suggested the possibility of the material being tied to the account, but none of us happen to be even vaguely certain on this matter. Was hoping someone could point me in the right direction so I'll know if I have to pay more, or if my having the download on my account will allow for a secondary download onto a secondary machine.

DLC items are tied to your account, so if you lose the files somehow you can just re-download them without having to pay again. Similarly, if you get the PC version of DA:O and the 360 version of Mass Effect (or some other multi-platform combination), you can still get the respective Blood Dragon armour in both.
So in answer to your original question, yes, you will get those items on both your desktop and laptop.
PS I'll try find the quotes for you tomorrow, unless someone else finds them first

What if you can not connect to the internet on said other computer? is there no way to move the files over? Also what happens if i move save file from one computer that has the DLC to one that does not? Does the DLC go away? Does it come back when i move the save back? Or will the save even work?
I have a computer at work that I play on in down times (my boss is ok with this) but it cant get on the internet so I wanted to know. F.Y.I. i have the game installed on a portable hard drive not on the computer.

I have a similar question... does all my DLC I have with my PC version would be available on a Xbox 360 version ? I know they are linked to my account but still it's not the same support. I mean I will be away from my home (computer) for a while and I was wondering if I buy the 360 version will I be able to have my DLC from the PC version ? I may have to rent the game to find out...

http://social.biowar...ntitlements.php shows on my page access to XBOX, PS3 and PC DLC having only purchased the standard Dragon Age PC version. (and played the flash game and used the character creator for the items).
Edit: Just noticed Blood dragon armor and stone prisoner are not shown on the console versions, oh well never mind.

DLC is tied to your account, not your PC. Thus, it works on multiple computers.
If you don't have an Internet connection, you won't be able to verify your account on the other computer. So, any DLC that requires authentication won't work. For the rest, just copy the DAZIP files over from the computer that does have an Internet connection and install them with the DAUpdater tool. Note that you only have to verify your account once, so a temporary Internet connection would be just fine.
My entitlement's page tells me that all of my DLC only works on the PC, except for the items that I unlocked through Dragon Age Journeys and the item that I got for uploading my characters to the social site (The Lucky Stone). I'm not sure what would happen if I registered a PS3/360 copy of the game, though.

The pre-order items and items from DA:J are linked to your account. If you want to to have the Stone Prisoner and Warden's Keep dlc on multiple platforms you must buy it individualy. For instance, I have the DA:J dlc and the memory band and ring of fire dlc across all platforms but only have SP and WK on my Xbox account.
