I've done it with CDR's if the Windows machine has a CD writer, and a
USB flash drive.

Subject: [iBook] The great Windows - Mac migration


Well, I finally convinced my wife that Mac was the way to go.  I snuck
out of work early the other day and bought her a 1Ghz iBook and loaded
up the RAM.  I took it home, and she was thrilled.

However, three days later she's still tapping away on her old Windows
notebook.  Why?  "All my stuff is on this one!"

Fair enough.  I could just share out the Windows machine over the
network and pull all her documents and whatnot over, but I'm wondering
if there's a faster way.  Can I plug a USB cable into the two of them
and do it that way?  Any suggestions as to how best to do this?  I would
love to hear from people who have made the migration, and anything they
learned in the process that would help make my wife's landing as soft as
possible.

Thanks,

Jean-Paul
