[QUOTE="Aptmunich, post: 57048, member: 3850"] I think if you backup to an external drive, you can tell your mac to transfer all your old preferences and apps from there. That would require backing up the ENTIRE drive though. I know you can just transfer personal settings from one mac to another by booting it in firewire mode and telling OS X setup to get your old settings from the firewire booted machine... Anyone ever tried this? [/QUOTE]
