Although the new cross over cable from Belkin may sound preachy to some it's actually quiet cool. The Belkin Switch to Mac cable is meant to recreate on a Windows machine the Mac's built-in Migration Assistant, which is used to transfer user accounts, applications, network and computer settings, files and volumes between Macs. Migration is also an optional process when initializing a new Mac. The cable comes with the Migration Assistant software for the Windows XP or Vista PC end that will ostensibly move all the default PC folders, settings, and apps to a Mac's default folders in the same way two Macs would.

The Belkin's Switch to Mac costs approx $50, the migration process between two directly connected Macs traditionally takes place over IEEE 1394, but with the switch; it's done over USB 2.0.
