[QUOTE="giulio, post: 352477, member: 28677"] 1st of all, get the iMac instead of the mini, if you have a choice. You can use a firewire cable to quickly xfer everyting you want. Use the migration assistant, it'll walk you through the steps. I don't remember them. But I suggest this instead: Transfer things manually. There's no use in xfering lots of preferences for programs that don't exist. Or copying programs you haven't used in ages. You're starting off with a nice new clean system - no need to muddy it up (and slow it down) in the first day! Run it, see what things you are missing as you use it, and copy them (or download/install the latest version) as you go. My two cents, free for you. [/QUOTE]
