The Retrospect products from Dantz have always been my favorites because of their ability to make incremental backups which allow me to go back and pick up a file from a day or a month ago, or to revert to an uncorrupted file or app. Unfortunately, Dantz says Retrospect won't run on 10.2.3 or later. They are working on a fix. Meanwhile, consider Synchronize! Pro from qdea.com. It will make bootable backups (on a HD), and backs up only files that have changed. Their tech support is the best I've ever seen. Tom
