Old-to-new PC transfer software

My new computer will arrive in a few weeks, and I will install the same
version of Windows on it that I am using now: Windows XP. I have excellent
backups of the old computer, using Retrospect 7.5.

Nevertheless, I am dreading the process of installing all of my Windows
applications, customizing settings, etc. I don't expect that my backup
software will be able to handle all of this for me, because the two
machines involved are very different, hardware wise.

I have seen several pieces of commercial software that promise to ease
the pain, such as "Aloha Bob." Any opinions on which piece is the best?
