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.
