Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

maxtor backup drives will also make a whole system backup.

I've been using Retrospect to back up our home network for years. I highly recommend it. I have a script set up to run nightly and do incremental backups two one of two external drives, switching drives every other night.
I've been using The unarchiver these days to unpack the occasional .sit file. I really don't want to install the invasive crap that is Stuffit Expander.

Do you have it set to run automatically?

PC and Windows?
Thanks for the link, Rob. A couple of those screen savers look cool too.
The backup setup I'm envisioning--well, optimally it would be a NAS device with a partition for the PC whole system backup, one for the Mac system backup, and then a partition of network shared storage.
I think the Time Capsule and Time Machine come closest to doing that on the Mac side, and an app like Retrospect would take care of the PC side. I just would like to take care of the laptop wirelessly.

Yeah -- but you're looking for something more complex, right? I don't really know all it does, but I have the instruction manual.

ita,
I have a maxtor that backs up my laptop. I run it once a week for the My Docs area and once a month for whole system.
I got mine as a gift, but I think this is it. I'm puzzled by the bimodal reviews. I've had mine since December and I love it.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Jane Espenson just mentioned Zhura on her blog, some kind of web-based alternative to Final Draft.
Thanks, -t.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Hmm. They used to come with stuffit expander, too.
I've lost track because I have a copy of Stuffit which I earned as a perk at a former employer.

Random question: in the past....few days? week? Firefox (on my Mac) has been freezing up and making me forcequit a lot. At least once or twice a day. It never used to do that.
Suggestions for basic maintenance tasks that might assist? Or comments that this is common at hte moment, or somesuch?
