Q: I will be getting a new laptop with Windows 7 Home edition. My current laptop runs XP. What is the most efficient and least painful way to transfer my personal files and programs?
专栏作家莫博士就有关电脑和其他电子设备的常见技术问题答读者问。
A: Windows 7 has a transferassistant, but it moves only files and settings. LapLink has a program, PCmover (http://bit.ly/bETKDz), in versions ranging from $30 to $60, which moves everything. Parallels offers the program Parallels Desktop for Upgrading to Windows 7 (http://bit.ly/9L1Er9), which is either $40 or $50, depending on whether you want an included cable.
问：我就要有一台运行Windows 7家庭版的新笔记本计算机了。我现在的笔记本计算机用的是XP系统。请问转移个人文文件和程序最有效、最便捷的方法是什么？
Q: I have an iPhone but am contemplating switching phones. I have a MacBook and all my music is in iTunes. Is there another smartphone that will sync my music with iTunes?
答：Windows 7附带一款转移助手程序，但它只能转移文档和设置。LapLink有一款叫PCmover的程序（http://bit.ly/bETKDz）能转移所有的内容，不同版本的价格从30美元至60美元不等。Parallels提供了一款用于升级至Windows 7的程序，名为Parallels Desktop（http://bit.ly/9L1Er9），其价格为40美元或50美元，这取决于你是否需要连接线。
A: The Palm Pre and Pre Plus can work with certain versions of iTunes, though not necessarily the latest. Apple and Palm have gone back and forth, with Apple disabling Palm syncing as it brings out new versions. If you use an older version of iTunes, it may well work. There are products that will sync iTunes music to a variety of smartphones. One is doubleTwist (doubletwist.com). It runs on PCs and Macs and supports Android, Palm, BlackBerry and other devices. Another product that can sync iTunes music to various non-Apple phones is called The Missing Sync (markspace.com). Note that, as far as I know, even if you get iTunes music onto a non-Apple phone, any copy-protected tracks you own won't play.
问：我正在考虑换手机，我现在用的是一部iPhone。我有一台MacBook，而我所有的音乐都在iTunes里。有没有另一种智能手机能同步我在iTunes上的音乐？
