	Migration Assistant should do this for you.

	If you are concerned, however, you can find the bookmark file.  I'm  
using Tiger and found the file at User-->Library-->Preferences-- 
 >Opera Preferences-->bookmarks.  If the bookmarks don't show up when  
you migrate to your new system, just copy that file from your back-up  
and put it in the proper place.  It should work.

	If it does not work, I believe that you can also ask Opera on your  
new system to import those bookmarks.

	When I switched from Windoze to Mac, I didn't have access to the old  
machine to move bookmarks.  I converted the bookmark file to a text  
file, moved that to the new machine, and kept it among my document  
files.  Whenever I needed a bookmark from that list, I opened the  
document and clicked on it.  Cumbersome, but it worked.
