Migratin of files and applications to new computer

I have to get a new laptop and I hate the thought of reloading several applications. I want to use the new operating system on the new laptop, so a mirror image migration using something like Acronis is not an option.

Does anyone know if there is software available to migrate applications from one computer to another without moving/copying the operating system? I realize it would have to make registry entries on the new machine and in my case, it will be moving from a Windows XP machine to a Windows Vista laptop and that might complicate things even more. Moving files is a little bit of a pain, but nothing like reloading software, so I really hope there's a product out there.

Thanks,
Chas.
