[Macpartners] Re: OS X backup recommendations?

[Gurukarm Khalsa]

Thank you Al, and all who've taken time to respond. I'm passing all 
suggestions on to the user. I think he might be getting a LaCie drive 
which comes, as someone mentioned, w/backup software. Retrospect has 
been mentioned a couple of times as well, so I'll let him make up his 
own mind about this.

The reason I asked about TSM, by the way, was because I wasn't clear 
on whether it's available for MIT people to use for personally-owned 
machines, which was why I mentioned "working out the payment piece". 
Again, that's up to him.

Thanks to all!
