Funny that there should be a discussion about this today. From Tipworld, I saw
this message this morning. I haven't used any of the products, but thought it
was a strange coincidence that both the Omega thread and this tip would come at
the same time.

And now for today's tip...
WHERE THERE'S A BUCK, THERE'S A WAY
A while back we ran a tip called "The Windows 95 Swap Meet," which
referred you to an article in Microsoft's Knowledge Base for
instructions on copying Windows 95 to another hard drive. A number of
you wrote in with third-party software suggestions for facilitating
this process.
The most straightforward of these programs is PowerQuest's DriveCopy
($29.95). In just a few simple steps, it copies everything from the
old drive to a new one. If you prefer a fuller-featured program, try
Partition Magic ($54.95 after a $15 rebate), also from PowerQuest.
For more information, point your Web browser to

(for DriveCopy)
or

(for Partition Magic)
A special thanks to R.S. Jackson, M. DiStasio, and M. McClung for
these suggestions!
