Q: New Macbook pro after eight years making the transition using Time Machine Backups

Time Machine. After 8 years of using my Macbook pro I order a new one today. I am handing off my old Macbook pro to my nephew. I have backed up everything to two Lacie discs I very rarely have used Time Machine. I work in law so needless to say I will be needing to access older documents and materials. Any and all suggestions would be very much appreciated as to this process. I know I will find myself digging around the back up drives. Will my last desktop be labeled as a folder in Time Machine? Also what is the best and most secure application to erase all data from my old machine before I give it away?

Thanks so much in Advance ,Troy.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.1)
