SuperDuper bumped to 2.1.4
Dave Nanian's highly regarded (and practically foolproof) backup utility SuperDuper! is now at version 2.1.4, available from the shirt-pocket.com website or via the auto update within SD itself. New and fixed items include:- Displays are no longer kept active during a copy
- Scheduled copies work properly in Japanese locale
- Auto update mechanism extended to support OS X version-specific updates
- Extended attributes now copied for locked/unchangeable files
- Preliminary support for 10.5 "Leopard"
- Bug fix for scheduled copy logs written to the incorrect log file
- Re-fixed 10.3.9 image creation
- Fixed 5th parameter to before/after scripts
- Improved crontab handling
Now that Mike Bombich's legendary and free Carbon Copy Cloner is in beta for version 3 UB, SuperDuper may have a bit of a run for its $27.95. Glad to see that the wheels are still turning over there!

Never noticed it before, but if you display About SuperDuper!, there's a lovely Easter Egg at the end of the credits - presumably only in registered copies.

SuperDuper has saved my ass more times than I can remember ... it is easy to use and does what it advertises.

SUPER DUPER ROCKS!
I worried about transferring from one ipod to another without DRAMA... well.. SUPER DUPER DID IT FOR ME!!
OLD IPOD = SOURCE
NEW IPOD = TARGET
voila.... and ITUNES HAD NO PROBLEM EITHER!
