[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1644722, member: 110816"] Files, yes, they will just come over without any problems. Programs is a different story depending on what they are. Snow Leopard was the last version of OS X that had support for the PowerPC processor. Starting with Lion, you could no longer use Universal Apps. So if your programs were either Universal or PowerPC based, they will not work anymore. So you might want to detail the apps that you have currently on your Snow Leopard Mac and we can tell you better. Also, you should use Migration Assistant to make it easy to copy the files around..
