Backing up and restoring 50 databases to a new server

I would like to replace my SQL 2000 server with a faster box. I currently
use a combination of full and transactional backups to back up the server
every day. I know that I could build a new box and restore each database
from backup file one at a time but was wondering if there was a quicker way
to store all the databasesHi,
Look in to the below web sites for various strategies to move all the
databases to new server.
