I've probably got enough personalization on my new Windows Vista PC that I should back up -- does anybody have a favorite program they'll recommend? Or a fairly inexpensive online solution? Unfortunately, Vista is HYUUUUUGE, and even with the minimal amount of Stuff I've added, I'm probably looking at 180 gigs for a complete backup.

Compassionately intolerant

Speaking of stuff and size and...um...stuff...

Has anyone used Disk Warrior for OSX? I'm seeing that it is getting better reviews than the current version of Techtool Pro 3.

I've been trying to run TP3 all day to optimize a shockingly fragmented hard drive. I had no idea things had gotten so bad. Trouble is, running TP3 in Classic keeps netting me a message that says that there is not enough "contiguous space to optimize: database."

How on earth do I create more contiguous space?

I went looking for programs I can jettison and only came up with two small games.

What I have doesn't seem like that much: Office, firefox, indesign, acrobat...that's about it for what I've added myself.

I'm running an eMac (700MHz), powerpc G4 with 1gb and OS 10.4.3

Any suggestions for what I should do to clean this puppy up?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That's the silliest thing I've ever heard. I'd go look at their HTML code right now if I knew how to do that.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
