Can I use it to re-install the OS on another Macbook Pro or is the install disc that comes with the MacBooks specific for each one?
 
You could try. However, it wouldn't be right as the disc are machine specific. BTW, where are your back-up discs?
 
I did some more searching and found some more info about it. I'm rebuilding a friends macbook pro but he is having some issues finding his restore discs.

Thanks for the replies.
 
You can always get the restore disks from Apple for a small fee. Using your disk on another system is against the EULA.
 
I don't think it will work, unless if you're trying to restore it. It might work, but I'm not sure cause the CD label says the specific model of your computer.
