Regarding migrating to new hardware, did you see that it appears that Microsoft bought "Aloha Bob's PC Relocator" and is no longer selling it? A friend asked for some software that would migrate his data and settings to a brand new computer, and I told him about Aloha Bobs, but when he tried to buy it, he couldn't find it anywhere.

That was one of the best engineered pieces of software for what it did, that I've ever seen.

Another bites the dust..... Information for current Apptimum customers Microsoft’s acquisition of Apptimum, Inc. will not result in significant changes for current customers of Alohabob products. Customers will continue to receive the product support they were entitled to, and there have been no changes to the support policy. Customers should continue to contact support in the same ways they are accustomed to, by following the links provided on this website. Microsoft does not plan to continue selling the existing Apptimum products. These are no longer for sale from Apptimum. Microsoft’s goal in making this acquisition is to simplify the computer setup experience for millions of Windows customers around the world, and make the application transfer functionality broadly available. Microsoft will release products based on the Apptimum technology in the future, and the first one is planned to be a downloadable product for customers of Windows Vista. For more information about these future products as they become available, please follow the Microsoft web site at www.microsoft.com
