Backups/Restore is not an issue thanks to Windows Home Server that does
complete backups of each computer on my home network every 24 hours in the

understand it is being released to the market in the next few weeks and have
no hesitation in recommending it as a very useful adjunct to any home system
with 2 or more computers.
