I made the switch. Not from a PC to a Mac, but from a G4 Mac to a brand new Intel Mac. This thing is so fast that light is jealous. The switch wasn’t 100% easy to do, or intuitive however and that was a big disappointment. Fear not! I’ve got some tips if you’re attempting to do it too!The biggest problem I came across was how to transfer the files from one Mac to the other without an intermediary drive—which would have taken forever. The solution was to use a FireWire cable, IEEE 1394. It was a 6-Pin to 9-Pin cable, which is used on the newer Intel Macs.
Plug your computers together with the source computer powered off. While holding the “T” key, you can push the power button and keep the “T” key down until the screen shows a FireWire logo. The computers will now be connected and your old hard disk drive will show up as a removable drive on your new Intel Mac.
