Intelligently backup your Mac

I nearly had a seizure reading comments #2 and #7.

Seriously.

This is a BLOG. WeB-LOG. It's not run by overpaid media slobs who have a _responsibility_ to uphold all the little idiosyncrasies of the English language. It's run by Mac geeks with a little too much time on their hands, who wish to keep others in the world updated on the goings-on in the world of Apple.

Take your grammar-bashing somewhere else. I think we're all a bit sick of it.

dude. were you drunk when you wrote this? I swear, it's full of the most intense corruptions of the english language that i've ever seen.

For those who have .Mac, Backup is a really nice piece of software, the newest version is soooo much better than the previous releases. Also, don't rely so much on magnetic media with moving parts, back up to DVD also and keep it in a cool, dry place. I just don't trust hard drives anymore.

I find it a lot easier to just make up a clone of my Hard Drive, and then smart update it every day or week using SuperDuper!

What a waste of time. Just buy an external and dump truck your entire hard disk onto it. Externals are less than a dollar a gigabyte nowadays.
And the convoluted procedure described in the article is no way, for example to suggest to a normal, non-nerd type mac user like your grandmother how she can back up her stuff.

I had butterfly type sentations in my stomach when reading what happenned to his siste. I did something similar once. Stuff like that is when you really feel like punching yourself out.

I nearly had a seizure reading that opening paragraph.

You have a cube sitting in a closet?

That should be against the law!
