setting up a new machine? It takes me days, weeks, years! to get all the software installed and properly configured. A lot of that is due to the fact that the defaults just don't pass muster. I guess if I conformed to the defaults then life would much more simple.

To Heinze: Just ignore him and use the Abuse vote. That is what is is there for, and his mess will be cleaned up by this time tomorrow. To you: Shouldn't you be getting ready for school to start again?

Tell me about it. I got a new computer about two weeks ago and I'm *still* setting it up :-( But I'm setting up all my stuff to run over several virtual machines so hopefully I'll never have to do this again. Being able to just copy a bunch of files over to a new box and have everything Just Work(TM) is just too beautiful for words :laugh:

Nope! Love it! It's like painting a house or something, that new feeling. Besides all you need to do is take notes before you do the change if it's the same computer.
Yeah but there are so many things you forget you tweaked over the years. If only there was a way to export ALL user prefs for all apps and restore them again :sigh:

Yep.. one reason I haven't wiped my laptop.. which is in serious need of being wiped :) It's just not running as fast as it used to. But hey it's a Dell, I should just be happy it hasn't blown up!

That's the holy grail you're looking for.

I've done it so often that it's become second nature. I'm usually up and running fine within a couple of hours, fully configured by the weekend.

So it sounds like it takes you a full week to setup a box :D
