If you have a Wii, the only way to get World of Goo is via WiiWare.
If you use Windows, we strongly recommend purchasing it directly from 2D Boy, as this gives you the best set of features and gives the most revenue to the developers. However there are a number of other ways to get the game, and the pros and cons of each are listed below.
If you use a Mac, be careful. The original box sets were made with only the PC version, as the Mac version had not been released at that time. We are unaware of any more recent versions that include the Mac version. Additionally, in Germany, RTL released a box set claiming "PC and Mac compatibility", but only the PC version was included. For this reason we strongly suggest buying from 2D Boy directly.
For Linux, your only option is to purchase the downloadable version from 2D Boy.

First, look in your program files for a file called "World Of Goo" (if you are unsure where this is, look here: http://goofans.com/dev/fileformats/profile )
Second, backup your profile on gootool and then find a flash drive.
Third, copy the file onto the flash drive, and transport the file onto your laptop. (put it in "Program Files")
Fourth, go to gootool, login on your profile, and then click "restore all profiles".
If your version of World of goo cannot be copied, then I don't know what to do...
