Hello, No problem at all. While I know that many people really love Super Duper, that wasn't my experience. I had some really funky things go drastically wrong with Super Duper a few years back and so I shied away from it. Plus I like the completely uncluttered screen in CCC. I don't know that this really has anything to do with it or not, but over the years, I've done a lot within the Unix and Linux environments, as well as really getting in to the terminal in OS X. HTH!
