Uninstalling ARD

Is there anything special I need to do in order to uninstall ARD from one computer and start using it (exclusively) on another?

If you got ARD from the Mac App Store, you don't need to uninstall it. It's licensed for user on any computer you own or control. But if you want to uninstall it, or have the copy that came on disk and hence was licensed for use on a single admin workstation only, you can just drag the Remote Desktop application to the Trash. To completely remove it with all the library and preference files, see:
