Migration, or, Downtime Continued

It needs to be said, loudly, that Apple's claim that switching from Windows to Mac is not only painless but actually quite fun! is A CROCK OF SHIT. Even as an experienced, long-term Mac user (let's just say I programmed turtles in Logo on Apple IIcs) I'm finding this process to be excruciatingly time-consuming and fraught with debilitating problems. To anyone considering making this switch, don't assume that Apple ProCare knows what they are doing, and ask them in advance kindly not to put your entire My Documents folder in the trash bin. And, tangentially, note that any backup program that doesn't have an option to restore the data manually is not a good backup program.
