A good read: http://www.aumha.org/win5/a/fast.php
Also note that Vista comes with Windows Easy Transfer: http://www.pcmag.com/slideshow_viewe...2&po=94,00.asp

Note that the wizard does not transfer or install the actual programs, it only transfers the settings for the programs.
You'll have to pop in the cd's and install Office.
