First iMac in many years (old G3 400 to new 2.0 Dual 2 Intel).

I know Macs have a feature that allows for really easy transfer of information, but I don't know where to learn more about.

Anybody know of a link where I can read more? Or, if it is easier, want to tell me what I do. Do I just need a normal ethernet cable, or something more specific? What program to I use to get the two macs talking?

Thanks a bunch!

You can connect them via FireWire. Check out the Apple docs on Target Disk Mode and Migration Assistant.
