Thanks for answering my question and, Kerry, you pronounced my name perfectly. That's a rare occurrence, trust me. Thanks to both you and David for your hard work, it's greatly appreciated.
Hey Kerry,
The last time I was at your place, I asked you what you used for backup. I remember you said something about an auto backup program. What was the name of it again? And is it possible to set it up just to backup a certain folder (documents, Photos, etc.)

For Windows I use a little utility from Microsoft called Robocopy. Its like XCopy on steroids. I then right a little batch script around it. For Mac, I have no clue. I am only just starting to use the Mac in production so I have just been saving stuff to my network drive that is backed up each night.
