So what's the point of having a backup program? The one that
came with McAfee didn't work, and the one that Microsoft
supposedly supplies is supposedly on a disc somewhere, but
who can find it? And is it even worth downloading? As for
the commercial backup software, if I'm to take you at your
word, I'd be wasting my money on one of them. I don't have a
complicated setup here, only one computer, only one
partition, no DVDs and only a smattering of photos and
graphics. Those symphonies I value were copied from CDS and
are easily saved. I'm about to do that now.
