Any cautions? Is this done easiest with a DOS command? Like COPY/C:

I went through this last summer, yes back up all data to the ext. hd, export your email and favorites as well.
As others have said be sure to have the oem program disks handy.
Prices of new are phenomenal, I bought 3xs the computor at 1/3 the price of my old one.
