You may NOT be able to swap your old drives into the new machine.
Depending on age, most new machines utilize SATA cables and a slightly
different power connecton.
I just ran into that.
My old Dell PS gave the ghost, I had 3 HD & 2 DiskDrives.
Bought a replacement stripped Dell and found my old drives didn't mate.
Call first to find out cableing. I don't think there is a IDE to SATA
adapter.
DEL *.* does WHAT?

Keyboard, drives, and OS will be pulled from the existing Dell. Existing HDs
with OS and programs should drop in to the new system.

Careful: If you run the Win7 Release Candidate build, you will almost
certainly have to do a complete re-install when the released product
comes out. That is, it would be unusual to be able to upgrade from
Win7RC to Win7 Gold (without manually editing the installation files).
And, note that there's no upgrade from XP to Win7 either.
