Thanks Tom
I did something similar on this one, bought it with a hybrid HD then got an SSD and cloned it. That was just the operating system though. Worked OK but had to fix a few bugs.
Now it's 5 and I've worn out 2 keyboards so...
The new one is basically the same Thinkpad but with faster RAM, a different (backlit) keyboard and funky display, and probably a lot of other different innards hidden away.
I don't think cloning the system on the old one to try running it on the new one will work because of hardware clashes. The plan is to transfer files, install programs on new system, export/import all possible program settings so I don't have to set them up again.
In Office, Firefox and Thunderbird you can do that, CAT tools I dunno.
