As far as moving all your data and even some programs, there are programs out there to help.
When I migrated from XP, I used PcMover. Not every program can transfer, but all the data does. Some programs do transfer; but some that are more intricately tied to the operating system like OpenBook and screen-readers don't.

When I get my new computer, I am getting a professional guy to help us get it going to try to recover as much as I want to import from this one. He'll know right how to guide us to that, and I like my gmail address, in a way better than this one. Thanks for the support.
