You'll love this, Russ - really easy. Do Get Info on any of the old JPEGView files, and look toward the bottom of the window at "Open with:" Select Preview as the application to open the file, then click the button below the pulldown window where it says "Use this application to open all documents like this." Voila-every jpg on your system opens with Preview.
