Setting Up A New PC Can Be a Headache Without PCmover
Post Christmas sees the Winter Sales with great offers on many new PCs. Some shoppers, however, may not realize the complications their good intentions will cause the person receiving the new PC if it is given without Laplink Software's PCmover.
The problem is rooted in setting up the new PC. Most consumers are used to their old PC's personality and don't know how to get their new PC set up the same way. They don't know how to get all of their data moved over, let alone find old CDs and serial numbers to reinstall all of their applications and apply all the preferred settings. That's where Laplink's PCmover comes in.
"Giving someone a new PC as a gift is like giving them a huge, shiny lump of coal if you don't include PCmover," commented Laplink's Director of Marketing Neil Minetto.

Users will no longer have to sacrifice hours of time and suffer multiple headaches to enjoy their new PCs.

"After the transfer is started, you can just kick your feet up, do some shopping or go to sleep. When PCmover is done, it can send you an email or a text message alerting you that it's finished and you can enjoy your new PC. It's the fastest way to set up a new PC, hands down."
Price & Availability:
PCmover is available at Amazon for SRP £29.99
