Morning gang!

Just ordered a new computer for the salon.
Who can tell me the best way to get it to basically mirror my home office computer? I want to get all my licensed software (Adobe Cs and Lr, Microsoft Office Professional, etc) and contacts onto the new machine.
Should I just proceed like I'm creating a backup and instal the backup on the new machine?

Also, I've been out of the stereo scene for a while.
I need a receiver for the shop. I'd like to be able to control the volume separately for two different rooms. Receivers have Wi-Fi and Pandora now? Can they also pick-up/stream stuff from my desktop computer?
Advice and recommendations, please!

Forum is acting up a bit. I actually had to be productive.

If you need legitimate software and are willing to shell out for it, I recommend Acronis. It's not the easiest method but the it's the best way if you want everything to be identical on the new machine. It creates an image of your existing hard driver that you transfer to your new computer. You need to make sure that your new hardware will work with your old operating system (I hope you're not on Windows XP). You will need to have an extra hard drive or external drive that is big enough to hold all of the data from your old computer. You will also need to create a boot disk to use in the new computer to restore the image (you can do this in Acronis). Those are the very basic steps needed.

Depending on what backup solution you are referring to, it likely won't transfer everything (the built-in windows backup is garbage for something like this).

I have legit licensed software and my brother is an MCSE so he gets me licenses/keys. Adobe says yes to running their suites on two computers as long as you aren't using them simultaneously.
New machine is running Win7.
