My folks may get a Mac desktop, but have been using the same XP based PC for
5 years. Hard drive was upgraded and the old files were copied over using
certain software I cant think of right now (Laplink) or something else. The
new Macs have Intel chips and my folks can run both Mac & Windows on one
machine. They could in theory copy their old drive to a new partition on the
Mac and I believe Boot camp can partition on the fly and no need to reformat
and use Disk Utility. They could either boot into each OS, or run each OS on
the same desktop (as what some third party OSX software can accomplish)
kinda like the way Classic runs on my Tiger based PPC G4 Mac I believe that
Parallels desktop will do the trick but it is quite expensive.

Any more tips on the transfer? Thanks..
