On OSX, most of your stuff would be automatically put into "Users/YourUserName" (and especially in Documents folder into that). But you might have put things somewhere else. You can browse your disc, just let these folders alone: - System - Library - Applications Then there are your preferences (including some personal data): they would be stored in several places, as OSX (Unix) has a complex structure. On OS9 (or previous), although some data would go into "Documents" folder, you really have no constraints there, so everything should be where you decided to put it. Again, there are also preferences files into "System Folder/Preferences". If you're "paranoid" about your stuff, perhaps you'd better erase the whole drive. If you're not, deleting just your data could be enough. There could be some privacy issue, though (e.g., the new user would know your browser's bookmarks and history, etc.). -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
