Dave's out travelling and will not be able to respond as quickly as he usually does.
I believe such a transition would be handled pretty smoothly by SuperDuper!:
Step 1: clone your old MBP's drive onto the LaCie drive
Step 2: plug your LaCie drive into the new MBP and boot from it; Launch SuperDuper!
Step 3: clone the LaCie drive onto the new MBP's internal drive and set the internal drive as your boot device.
I'm sure Dave would have put this more eloquently, but I hope this helps.
Best.

If I were to use SD and clone my HDD to a FW Lacie will I still end up with bugs? Is it easy with SD to overwrite a drive with that clone?
Thanks for any help
