I've never really wanted any of their stuff anyway - NAV is a pile of
bug-ridden, unstable crap. Ghost is handy every now and then, but the
Standard version seems to be incapable of sending disk images over a LAN.
Needless to say Ghost Enterprise can send the images over a LAN, but it's
insanely expensive for what it does.
And now Symantec have taken over PowerQuest, I guess PartitionMagic's going
to be dumbed down beyond belief. I suspect DriveImage will also be canned (if
it hasn't been already). Ick.
Does anyone know if Acronis TrueImage or any of the other Ghost work-alikes
are any good?
Later.
