Memorex Markets Intellimover Technology
Santa Fe Springs, Calif.— Starting next month Memorex will ship its version of Detto Technology's Intellimover, a combination software/ hardware product that helps consumers migrate files from their old computer to their new PC. The $49 product comes with a USB 2.0 and parallel port cables and a software utility that helps migrate the data from one computer to another. However, it will not move applications between computers, which would cause a licensing problem.
