I agree that there is no perfect software, but without constructive criticism, there is no incentive to improve. I'll post some feedback directly to Sprite - they will hopefully be more open to the idea that their software could be improved upon.
No, with all respect I think everyone was just adding to the discussion, at least IMHO - unless you are referring to another thread . Look I agree, incremental backup sounds like a great idea - but for a 160 Gb hard drive. It's just that I don't personally find it high on my wish list for Sprite, which does all I want it to do @ 100% reliability. In case you are not yet aware (as you only recently bought the program) , you can set up sprite to backup as a self executing file- this is what I find invaluable: just click on it and you have restored your PPC- a lifesaver:not_worth . I wonder how this would work with an incremental back-up; to me there just seems so much more to go wrong- so much seems kinda quirky and unstable at the best of times in a PPC if releability or ease of use is affected then this would be no use to me, personally. If not, then great. Another 30 seconds of my life to waste at will ! :approve:
