I'm pleased to announce the 1.5 release of Impression, a backup utility for Mac OS X. For immediate release: Impression 1.5 is a significant update to the backup application for OS X. This version adds direct-to-disk archiving, file-copy support and performance enhancements. The UI has been brightened up and various bugs have been fixed. Specific features and enhancements include: - Impression now supports direct-to-drive backups by writing secure disk images to any mounted media. Disk image compression and checksum options are available. - 'File copy' mode is available in addition to pax archiving, which offers a tremendous speed gain for archiving large volumes of small files. - The code for the backup engine has been reviewed and consolidated, resulting in an average 10% speed boost over Impression 1.14. In addition, the restore code has been sped up 5-15x when 'run as root'. - The UI has been reworked significantly, adding new icons and streamlining choices and options available throughout the application. - Bugs in the checksum module and in the restore engines have been fixed. - Many more enhancements and tweaks. Impression costs US$20 (US$22.50 through Kagi) currently, and as always updates are free to registered owners. Please note that Impression's price will be increasing to US$25 (US$27.50 through Kagi) on July 15, 2003. Buy your copy now and save!
