I'd say it really depends on how the previous machine was configured and used, and how the new machine is going to be configured and used. Migration Assistant can be handy for moving over systemwide settings and applications, but the suite of apps you want on one machine might not be what you want on the new one, and settings such as (for example) Network locations you had on your mobile Macbook might not be applicable for your desktop iMac. There's a lot to be said for starting fresh on a new machine (that's what I would do), but if you get frustrated with having to find/enter your serial numbers for software, or don't know what sorts of files are kept in ~/Library/Application Support and ~/Library/Preferences, Migration Assistant makes it a no-brainer._______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
