File/Import and Export.../Export to a file/Personal Folder File (pst.)
Select Calendar (or any other folder you wish)

On the other computer do the import.

No NO NO!!!! As posted here almost on a daily basis do NOT USE IMPORT AND
EXPORT unless the account is an Exchange account.

Why not?

(Courtesy of Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook])

Importing an entire PST may well corrupt your profile and may create a ghost
PST that you can't close. Importing PST's will lose:
1. Custom Forms
2. Custom Views
3. Connections between contacts and activities
4. Received dates on mail
5. Birthdays and anniversaries in calendar
6. Journal connections
7. Distribution Lists

Opening a PST file will preserve all of these. That is why we do not advise
people to import a native file into Outlook.
