Hi there,
Thanks for all the replies about back-up solutions.  I ended up 
buying SuperDuper, partly because of descriptions of its speed, and 
indeed, when I backed up my whole hard drive, it was noticeably 
faster than Retrospect... but I was disappointed to learn that in 
fact, it can't do incremental backups...
For some of you, SuperDuper can do a whole new backup while you get a 
cup of coffee, but for me (400MHz powerbook G4), sad to say, an 
incremental Retrospect back-up, slow as it is, is faster than a whole 
new SuperDuper backup.

Anyone have anything good or bad to say about 'You Synchronize'?  I 
have a G4 desktop as well as my Titanium, and I'd like to keep them 
synched, if it's fast and easy... and by that I mean I don't want an 
old file on one machine, that I've made one little recent change to, 
to replace a much more current file on the other machine, that I 
haven't changed for a few days.
Any comments?
Regards,
Malcolm
