wow, this sure turned into a bigger thread than I imagined.  thanks to
everyone for all the great info.

how about if I do this?

Why can't I just swap the disk drives between the two towers?  If this
works, it would make the whole job unbelievably easy.

My current PC is a pretty clean install, and I can live with it as is
- I was just looking for better hardware to go with it.

All my stuff would already be installed, no need to move data from one
PC to another, I've got plenty of room (over a hundred gig) on my old
pc, and the main drive is nearly brand new with a clean WinXP install.

the only things I'd be worried about would be how my current install
would react to being presented with all new and different hardware.

would I just get a bunch of "detected new hardware" messages and
everything would be hunkydory?

thanks again,

Rick
