Thanks for the reply. Transfering data is no big whoop; I can do it over the network
or DVD-R.
I don't want to waste a whole lot of time re-installing apps (I've got a ton), re-setting
their various settings, tracking down fonts, finding every little tweek, batch file,
etc. that I created....
If there's anything that can speed it up, I'd spend money on it. Otherwise, I guess
I'll burn a couple days getting everything setup.
Thanks.
