hey everyone
ill be buying a new macbook soon
so i was wondering how will i be able to move everything i have on my macbook such as apps, pics and music to my new macbook that i will be buying soon ?
 
If you're buying a Whitebook, you can use Migration Assistant and a FW400 cable to do this.

If you're buying a Unibody, it'll be easiest to use Time Machine with an external hard drive (A good thing to do anyways) or you can use Migration Assistant via Ethernet cable.
