I currently have Office 2003 OEM that I purchased from a computer software seller. I installed the OEM software on one computer and have used that computer for three years now. I plan on building a new computer all together and would like to use the Office 2003 software to install on new machine. I will not be using the old computer after new computer is up and running. Is this possible? If so how?

If it's been over 120 days since the last activation/install, you can move it without any problems other than getting flack from the MS fanboys and girls in these groups who feel that breeching an EULA is a capital crime. In fact, due to the 120 days feature, you can install an OEM copy of Office 2003 on more than one computer without any problems.

So presumably you consistently ignore the speed limit when driving,

I don't drive but when I did, yes, like most people, I ignored the speed limit. Had I gone the speed limit, I would have had to put up with everyone honking at me for going too slow, except, of course pure, lily white Gordon.

and any other "rule" that you disagree with, even if you have agreed to it by implication?

On your high moral horse again, are you, Gordon? Get the *** over it and wake up to reality. The licensing scam is just that, a scam and one you've bought into hook, line and sinker. MS made BILLIONS UPON BILLIONS with pre Office and Windows XP. GREED and the de facto monopoly went to Ballmers head and now you have paying customers having to prove they bought something not once, not twice but three times before you can use and update Office.

For your information, laws are usually changed because people break them. For example, prohibition. And if you knew what went into making laws and Texas sausage, you wouldn't have anything to do with either one. For example, the laws against pot and heroin were made for RACIST reasons, not because some lawmaker thought these substances might be bad for your health.
