There is no utility that I'm aware of to move folders from a store to
another store, or Newton. You could try to move the system soup entry from
the internal of your Newton to an external card, but I'm not sure it will
work, since you can, I think, move entries only from one soup to another
soup. AFAIK, there is no system soup entries on a card, so I don't think you
would be able to find a system soup on an external RAM card.

What you could do would be to backup the system soup with NCU and then
restore on the destination Newton.

bozotic /boh-zoh'tik/ or /boh-zo'tik/ adj.: [from the name of a TV clown
even more losing than Ronald McDonald] Resembling or having the quality of a
bozo; that is, clownish, ludicrously wrong, unintentionally humorous.
Compare wonky, demented. Note that the noun `bozo' occurs in slang, but the
mainstream adjectival form would be `bozo-like' or (in New England)
`bozoish'.
