With my recent move and home sale, it has been a lifesaver due to it's ability

I had an inspection report I had to get to my realtor that was far too big to

I agree, Dropbox is a great service, but IIRC the original request was
for software to clone a hard drive. Dropbox won't do that.

Been using Amazon with good results until this last order.
One item Amazon listed was from Directsupercenter.com.
The receipt Amazon sent showed a shipping and handling

I've been using clonezilla for awhile and while I like it I wouldn't call it
idiot-proof. Not even idiot resistant.
