Aha!!  But therein lies the twist!!

The reason that I am upgrading is because the Firewire port on my  
Titanium is burned out, hence no Target mode.  Now! That being said,  
I DO have an external enclosure that I can toss my Titanium harddrive  
into.  Will Migration Assistant work if I stick my drive in an  
enclosure?

Thanks!!
