I just downloaded Desk Tape Pro, but haven't tried it yet. I'm assuming that since I can only find 'updater's on CNet for Retrospect, that Retrospect must be purchased. Until I'm convinced it's worth it to me to pay for that tape functionality, I'm hoping to find a free solution. I'm glad to know that Retrospect is a good bet, though, in case there's something poor about Desk Tape Pro but it works enough to convince me to want to use the drive.
