Hi Kevin, Other than cloning the drive, I'm not familiar with any utility that would do what you're asking. There might be a way that it could be done if you had a firewire cable and you were to start up the second computer in Target Disk mode. You could then copy the user folder from one Mac to the other. In theory it sounds plausible but I'm not 100% sure it would actually work properly. It would need to be done from the Root user and it would also be dependent on whether the user on the second computer had already been created. There would be a lot of variables and if you're not careful, there's a ton of damage that can be done when logged in as Root. For as much time as it would take to test this, I'd just make a new user on the other computer and set things up manually.
