Leopard to Leopard Migration

[jeffgtr]

I've taken the plunge and replacing my Power Mac Dual G5 2.0 with a refurb Mac Pro (the happy happy joy joy part of this is that I can permanently remove my windows box and use parallels).
I know I'll need to do a clean install of the Adobe CS3 Suite, Office, Cubase and most likely all of my other apps. Is there a graceful way of moving over mail settings, bookmarks, passwords, user settings, itunes music and so on? I would appreciate any pointers and pitfall warnings you can give me. I Googled this and found lots of Tiger to Leopard advice but little Leopard to Leopard.

If you're running the latest version of Leopard you could just clone it over to the new Mac Pro.

Make sure the Mac Pro isn't DOA first though.

Thought about cloning using Super Duper but I'm thinking there would be issues since I'm moving from a PPC to Intel processor.

There are no issues since Leopard installs both binaries.
