I don¹t use an online service due to the expense and the slowness uploading files. I found it was economical and convenient to buy an external firewire hard disk drive and I have used ³cloning² software (such as Carbon Copy Cloner and Super Duper) to make an exact, bootable copy of my main hard disk. This solution works well for me. Of course if one of your criteria is to keep your backed up files safely off site, my solution does not help with that. David ++++++++++ David Spound, M.Ed.
