Migrating from G4 to G5 - garageband questions amoung others.....

Okay, I upgraded from a G4 MDD 1.25 Single to a G5 Dual 2 GHz (2003). I've learned how to slave the G4 to the G5 as an external firewire device.

My questions revolve around what should I migrate to the new computer, etc? They both have the same operating system and I'm installing the same apps....like MS office, etc. Should I just do clean installs in teh new machine?

What about loops, plugins, etc. for garageband? How do i migrate all that so I dont' have to go find teh plugins and re-install?

Any ideas?

PowerMac G5 2 GHz DP, 3 GB RAM, 160GB HD, Mac OS X (10.4.8), 500 GB SATA, Pioneer DVR-106, (2) 60 GB Ipod Video, 1GB Shuffle
