you can simply hook up the two Macs with a FireWire cable and use the migration assistant

My issues with this are 1) I'm pretty sure I don't have a firewire cable, and 2) I only have one keyboard and mouse. I was thinking I COULD boot the new system, then unplug the keyboard and put it in the old system, then boot holding "T", then move the keyboard back to the new system, but I wasn't sure it would work.
As for gutting the iMac, I DO plan to keep it. When I get a house (with more desk room) I was thinking of running them networked and use
http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/ to handle them. However, one of the reasons I am replacing the iMac is that I believe the CRT, or the video controller might be on its way out.
