I don't find that (at least the speed stuff) with the rewritten 2009 versions.

A while back, I switched to Acronis (version 7, I think) from Ghost. AT that time, I liked Acrosis better than Ghost. But then Ghost came out with some better features and I switched back. Acronis finally caught up (around version 9 or so), but I have stuck with Ghost. I think they are relatively on par. Once in a while I see ATI for about $20. And every now and then, I see a Norton NIS, Norton Ghost, and something else bundle for free after MIR and upgrade MIR.

I can get Acronis True Image Home 2009 for $29.65. Is this a good price? It seems the consensus here was that his was a pretty good package (best?) for backup and imaging. I thought it may be nice to get Disk Director 10 too but adding that would bring the total to $79.64. Is DD worth the extra money? Anyone know of any package deals for the two that would work out cheaper? Thanks! -- Gary http://www.twigsandtracks.com Twigs snap and tracks fade, a photograph reacquaints
