Backup

Backup is, unsurprisingly, Apple’s backup utility, one of the perks for .Mac subscribers.

Opinions

  • (I only do full backups of home directories and raw data, so it mostly works)

  • Jonathan Rentzsch - disses it violently.

  • Eric J. Barzeski - lists the things Backup ought to be able to do (including restoring the OS and bundling incremental sets into a restore)

  • Michael McCracken - got caught by the “bad restore” bug.
