Vanished mysteriously, and no one at Microsoft wants to talk about it.

The idea is nice, but totally useless on the business end.
I agree..I used AlohaBob for many clients to upgrade their systems. It did about 90% of the job for me and saved my clients money in the end. I was sad when MS bought and killed it.
I recently came across PCMover from Laplink (http://www.laplink.com/pcmover/) which works VERY well, reasonably priced, and does about 98% of the task of migrating someone to a new machine. The only problems it had moving applications was the HP Printer software apps. It even moved non-standard applications we didn’t have the install disks for..which is something AlohaBob was never able to do.
