The good news: I'll be getting a new computer (Windows 95 or 98) about twice
as fast as the current one in a few days. The bad news: I've spent a long
time tweaking the preferences of Word, Outlook, etc. to suit the way that I
work. Is there any easy way to migrate those preferences to my new computer,
short of printing out a bunch of screenshots and laboriously re-establishing
the preferences one by one?
