Can't believe I'm asking this, old as I am.
Just ordered new MBP to replace my 2008 MB, and am not sure about the best way to transfer over my data. I remember reading posts about migration assistant copying over bugs or fluff or settings where a person might be better setting up as new. Is that true?
In the past, I think I set up as new and then just copied over folders (documents, photos, etc.) Is that a better way, or just a slower way?
I'm going to pick up the new computer while on vacation, away from home, and away from my old computer. I guess I could bring a time machine backup with me - if it's better to do all the set up all at once.
Remind me?
