Best Way to migrate databases

Hi all,
What is the best way to migrate all databases from one sql server to
another?
We are buying a new hardware for the database server and we need to move all
databases to the new machine.
Thanks in advance,
Fabio
I like BACKUP and RESTORE, but sp_detach_db and sp_attach_db also work.
