Whenever I re-do a machine at work, I copy the entire drive, and on the copy on my machine, I delete all the unneeded files one by one. "Why," you might ask? Because I know that my co-workers do not always save their files in the appropriate places. Plus, if I forget to move a preference, I have a copy of the entire Disk to find the appropriate preference. _______________________________________________________ http://www.ururk.com Not technically a blog per se, really just a blog driven website.
