Just a quick blogette to plead with mac users to back-up their stuff. I just came across another iMac with a disk that had suddenly become unuseable. Years of precious photos gone. I tried every disk utility I could find but no joy. If you think backing up is too much like hard work then upgrade to leopard os x 10.5 and with TimeMachine and a USB hard disk it is 2 clicks for hourly back-ups forever

OK, I know, I have more chance of selling a pension scheme.
