New Macbook, slot in old HD?

[Patrick J]

I am getting a new Macbook Pro in a week, with exactly the same specs of my current one. Can I swap out my old HD and put it in the NEW one? Will everything be exactly the same?

Yes.

I changed my mind, as for some reason there is quite often 100% disk access by some unknown application, and NTFS 3G (which, even when I set Spotlight not to search the BOOTCAMP partition, still searches) won't uninstall and gives an error from the control panel: I will try the MIGRATE ASSISTANT.
Will this allow me to:
-Replicate both partitions (Bootcamp and Macintosh HD)?
-Clone the contents of BOOTCAMP;
-Intact iPhoto and iTunes library?
-Install selected applications from Macintosh HD (I don't want to be botherd by NTFS 3G);
-Copy everything in my home folder over to the new machine
?


EDIT: I see I will have to use winclone to clone the old bootcamp partition into the new one

-Replicate both partitions (Bootcamp and Macintosh HD)?

No, only Macintosh HD.

-Clone the contents of BOOTCAMP;

No.

-Intact iPhoto and iTunes library?

Yes.

-Install selected applications from Macintosh HD (I don't want to be botherd by NTFS 3G);

No. I believe it's an all-or-nothing proposition.

-Copy everything in my home folder over to the new machine

Yes. That's what it's for.
