Default MS Backup

These days most folks don't use backup, they use a disk imaging program to
create a clone of the entire hard drive at once. Much faster and much
easier than MSBACKUP. Remember it was written in the days when folks used
either floppy diskettes or tape drives for backup.

Thank-you!
I will use a cd. This [overwrite] option was the course that I took when
using the backup app. If this was bad choice, why is it in the options,
and
worse yet, I wonder how many people out there are not backing up
correctly?
