[P1] Utilities to run on ibook: dw vs. tt

Not nearly as often as I should! I have an AppleScript set up to make 
duplicates of important files on the iBook that change regularly (mail, 
Quicken files, Safai bookmarks), but that's just a backup copy on the 
same computer. Every so often, I'll do a full backup of the iBook to my 
iMac (which is primarily used for business), which has it's own 
"account."

On the iMac, the only files that are regularly backed up are 
work-related business files in progress (because recreating them would 
require hours or days of work). iTunes music and iPhoto pictures are 
backed up every so often, but that's about it.

I'm about to buy a large Firewire drive specifically for the purpose of 
making regular back-ups.
