The newest Mac OS X ships with an application which can be told to do backups. It's well integrated into the OS' appearance, though. Automatic backup, as provided with the OS distribution, requires an external or networked disk and has to be explicitely turned on. > but I don't know how all these systems handle the > main problem, which is: the file size will grow without bounds. AFAIK, Apple simply ignores this problem. You either have enough disk space, or ... well, I don't know what TimeMachine does in disk full conditions. Probably it simply stops doing it's work until you clean up manually. All you can do to avoid such cases is to switch to another backup system and/or exclude specific folders/directories.
