For laptops, I use Apricorns EZGig. It's a PCMCIA adapter that plugs into the new or old drive...and has it's own cloning software, boot from a CD and run it much like Ghost.

This doesn't include the drive, and I don't use the case, they just give you a case for those who don't want to handle a drive, an anti-static mat in there to place it on while it's copying. The important part is the PCMCIA adapter (can get the drive imaged before the sun rises again...which is what you'll find with attempting it over USB), and the software.
