As soon as things die down around here, I'll tackle that.

The installation sounds easy enough. Do you have any advice on how to transfer my MS Outlook pst files so I don't lose years worth of emails? That's the main thing I can't figure out how to best work out. I know I could install an open source email client on Windows and then transfer the converted files but do you know if there's a program that can open Outlook's .pst file directly?

And then, of seriously minimal importance, how to handle I-tunes files? I can kiss that goodbye but I like my old I-pod lol.
