Harv,

Is there a particular reason you might not want to move her entire account onto the new machine?

I just performed a long-distance migration under nearly identical circumstances for my wife's Mom, migrating her entire account (minus Applications) from a 10.4.11 configured Pismo onto a new (to her) 2007 Snow Leopard configured Intel iMac......it required Skype to my wife's machine (from here in Afghanistan) to direct the process from afar, but the end result was a flawless migration of all documents, data and e-mail to the new machine.

edited to add Snow Leopard equipped.....
