How do I – Move my SharePoint databases from a 32 bit Windows Server 2003 x86 with SQL Server 2005 x86 to a new SQL instance on a 64 bit Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 with SQL Server 2008 R2 x64

This brought back to light the question of how to move your content to a new SQL Server. There are many good articles out there, but this worked well for us.
