Just install the Lotus Notes client on the new PC and have them log in. Everything will be replicated down from the server to the new client PC. You will probably need to synchronize the address book (Actions - Syncrohnize Address Book).

Notes2008 - that only works if the user is set up with a roaming profile. If not, you'd at the least need to copy the local names.nsf for personal contacts and the user's ID file. Bookmarks.nsf would be optional.

Install Notes on the new PC. Copy the entire 'Data' folder from the old PC and replace on the new. This assumes that the .id file is located in this folder. All local DBs are by default stored in this location, so any archives or address books stored locally will be moved also.

Grab the notes.ini also.
