Apple Providing Free Data Migration With a Mac Purchase or Repair (macrumors.com)
Apple is now offering data migration services for free when customers purchase a new Mac or need to have a Mac replaced for repair reasons. Prior to this month, data migration was priced at $99. From a report: Beginning April 2, there will be no cost for Data Migrations with the purchase of a new Mac or Data Transfers with a repair. Data migration was included as a feature in Apple's One to One program, which was shut down in 2015. One to One allowed customers to pay $99 when purchasing a new Mac to get a year's worth of instruction and help. When Apple ended One to One, data migration was still available as a one-time $99 service.
In a cost-saving measure, Apple will be contracting out the data migration tasks to the NSA.
You are welcome on my lawn.
Yes, but only to Compact Cassettes. Hipsters love tape and they wouldn't want your data to lose their warmth and roundness.
Escher was the first MC and Giger invented the HR department.
Will they cover the data migration from my PDP 10 tapes for free?
It's not mentioned. So you could ask Apple to migrate a data center if you wish.
