Yes, but it really would be a little pointless.  Super Duper! is a total backup 
solution.  Time Machine is a shadow or synchronous backup solution.  So they 
are two different species.  They do two different types of backup.  Where they 
would work well together is in a situation where you registered Super Duper! 
and then you have access to the "Smart Updates" functionality of Super Duper!.  
In that type of scenario, you'd be able to get the best out of both of them if 
you configure them right.

But to be honest, I really think that if you're looking at a backup solution to 
use Super Duper, I would personally advise you to forget about Tie machine, and 
just make sure you have a regular strategic backup routine.  I hope that helps.

Thanks Gordon, that was helpful. I just downloaded SuperDuper and will look it 
over. Question: Can I use SuperDuper and Time Machine side by side on a single 
external drive? Would I need a seperate partition for each? I'm looking at a 2 
terabyte firewire drive from IOMega for backup purposes. My internal Mac HD is 
500GB.  do you have a favorite drive or a recommendation for a good external 
backup drive? Reliability being the watch word of course.
