I need to transfer all programs and data from an old IBM T30 to a new IBM T43p.  I don't need to transfer the OS which is XP Pro on both.  I was considering using Norton Ghost 9.0 but read so many bad reviews regarding the software.  However, it is the only software I find that advertises peer to peer migration. I have read so much data, that I don't know if I need to clone or migrate.  I have also looked at Acronis True Image 8.0 and Acronis Migrate Easy. Thanks for any advice.

Transferring ‘programs’ may cause problems (many applications bring along specialized drivers or libraries); EXE and DLL files can cause mayhem when you transfer them. It will be easy to transfer all data (files and folders) though.
I would look into this:
