Re: [H] Acronis True Image deal?
Go read the Acronis forums and decide on that. Seems past few versions have some issues, dunno if that's still the case. Personally I am still using TI Home V9. http://www.wilderssecurity.com/forumdisplay.php?f=65 tmse...@rlrnews.com wrote: Generally, most people who like something say nothing.

NIS and AV. Ghost 14, I'm not sure about yet. I did like the earlier versions. But as for the boot disk, booting off the Ghost disk does allow you to restore from a non-booting system. Like I said, I like Acronis, I just have a very workable solution with Norton.

Re: [H] Acronis True Image deal?
That is a decent price. (I've done better, but you have to "strike while the iron is hot"...) Acronis will not honor any GREAT deals that are basically hacks or mutiple sales of the SAME install key, so be careful where you buy. (I only read their announcements, no experience in getting robbed.) Once you are a customer, they offer deals and discounts. I have both. They do different things.
