If you have already started using the new machine, yes there
is a problem.  You can certainly make a second disk area on
newmachine and copy the files from oldmachine_1 to newmachine_2.
What you lose are your old SAVE/GET files. TPUT/TGET files, message 
files, and the like.  That may not matter to you, in which case, go 
right ahead.

The files to edit are $AIPS_ROOT/DA00/DADEVS.LIST and NETSP.
