There is a demo version of the software on America Online I believe in the
Utilities software library (but I can't remember exactly where I found it).
I think the demo will let you do backups but it doesn't have all the frills
the the full program does.  I'm not really sure because I haven't tried to
use the demo yet except to look at the interface and see what it had.  It
does look pretty good.  I was planning on trying it out tonite.  If there is
interest, I'll post my impressions of it.
