San
Francisco, California-January 7th, 2003-Detto
Technologies, a leading provider of migration
technology for consumer and corporations,
announced today that the Parallel-to-USB
version of Move2Mac®,
the leading PC to Mac®
migration product that allows PC users
to easily switch to the Mac, will ship
by January 31st. Detto can be found at
Macworld, sharing the Keyspan booth, #2307,
in the South Hall.
The vast majority of Windows 95 computers
do not have a USB port and cannot connect
to the Mac's USB port. Move2Mac's Parallel-to-USB
cable version solves this problem allowing
users to transfer their data directly
to the Mac instead of via time-consuming
alternatives such as burning CDs. The
Parallel-to-USB cable, and industry first,
was designed and produced by Keyspan,
recognized in 2000 and 2001 as America's
#1 USB connectivity vendor as ranked by
NPD Intellect (formerly PC Data).
"Since
its introduction in November, Move2Mac's
USB version has been widely acclaimed
for its effectiveness in helping moving
users switch to the Mac," said Larry
Mana'o, CEO of Detto Technologies. "By
partnering with Keyspan in the world's
first Parallel-to-USB transfer cable,
Move2Mac enables Windows 95 users to automate
their switch to the Mac.
"USB
adapters are our specialty," noted
Mike Ridenhour, President at Keyspan.
"Move2Mac's ability to switch Windows
95 users to the Mac provided a compelling
opportunity to engineer the industry's
first Parallel-to-USB transfer cable."
Pricing
and Availability
Move2Mac Parallel-to-USB version will
ship by January 31st, and will be available
in Apple stores, CompUSA, The Computer
Store, MacZones and other catalogs and
