     Yes, it does use the standard file system.  However, it still takes
a while to fill a floppy; due to the compression, I think.  The
commercial programs are certainly faster.  MRBackup does it's job well,
though, and is pretty reliable.  The author is very good about fixing
bugs.  He's on the net here, somewhere, so you can e-mail him if you
have a problem.
