I did not describe this for the simple reason that even if you do not 
make regular backups THIS is a situation where you would want a full 
backup. In other words, when migrating to a new computer you would 
almost always want to copy ALL your user data  to an external device 
(your external backup drive) and then you would copy from that to where 
user data goes on your new computer.
