BELLEVUE,
WA - November 4th, 2002-Detto Technologies
today announced it has shipped Move2Mac,
its PC to Mac migration product. Designed
to work with the Mac OS X version 10.2
"Jaguar" or later, Move2Mac
migrates music, photos, files, folders
and settings from a PC and integrates
them into the Mac in a fraction of the
time it would take a user to do it manually.
Browser, desktop and even complicated
email settings are configured quickly
and easily onto the Mac. With tens of
thousands of users moving to the Mac from
Windows PCs, Move2Mac provides a seamless
and easy method for people to switch to
the Mac.
"Detto's
mission is to make it easy for customers
to move to a new computer," said
Larry Mana'o, CEO of Detto Technologies.
"With Move2Mac, PC users can now
quickly and easily move to some of the
coolest computers in the industry and
switch to a Mac."
"There
has never been a better time to switch
from a Windows PC to a Mac, and Detto
just made it easier," said Philip
Schiller, Apple's senior vice president
of Worldwide Product Marketing. "Move2Mac
is the fastest and easiest way to move
files and settings directly from a Windows
machine to an iMac, eMac, iBook, PowerBook
or Power Mac."
"Over
30% of our Mac purchasers are PC users
and their number one question is how to
move to the Mac," said Sean Luckman,
Vice President of Sales for The Computer
Store. "With Move2Mac, it's now easier
for our sales people to help customers
switch to a new Mac."
About
Move2Mac
Consisting of software and a USB cable,
Move2Mac lets PC users quickly and easily
transfer documents, spreadsheets, photos,
music, files, folders, IE favorites, databases,
graphics, Outlook Express address book,
backgrounds, and more. PC users can even
select the file types and settings to
move, so their new Mac isn't cluttered
with unwanted files. Because Move2Mac
moves only relevant folders from the PC
to the Mac and preserves the folder structure
without converting PC files into Mac format,
users can be ensured that their data is
not lost.
Initially,
Move2Mac lets users with Microsoft Windows
98, 98SE, Millennium, 2000 and XP move
from the PC to the Mac. Support for Windows
95 via a parallel-to-USB cable will be
available in late Q4, 2002.
