Microsoft Buys Apptimum

Shelley Solheim writes on InfoWorld:

Microsoft Corp. Tuesday said it had acquired Apptimum Inc. to gain technology that helps Windows users more easily migrate applications from old PCs to new PCs.

Apptimum is best known for its Alohabob PC Relocator tool, which allows users to transfer applications to new machines without having to reinstall them.

Microsoft will first offer Apptimum's technology as an optional download for the Windows Vista operating system set to ship later this year.
