You can use the old drive as a slave, but any programs you want on the new machine will need to be reinstalled, most software cannot simply be copied over (One place where Mac's are clearly better than PC's). If you don't have install media for them, you'll be out of luck. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
