forgotten how easy it was to switch it. Clicking on unicode did the trick.

Apple knows how to make money. Like their 1% share of the cell phone

I use (and recommend) Ghost for my own daily images. But when I need

Acronis True Image is very good. Not free, but I have it set up to
do an incremental backup.
I did a full backup and then have it do an incremental once a week.
I have an external drive hooked up to the system for this backup to be done on.
Periodically I go onto the external and check to
