I dropped Brett a private note but I'd like to say some good things about the
Mac client now that I've played with it a bit.  I don't want to put anyone
off to the Mac client, I think it's a very smooth, very Mac'ish interface.
Actually I prefer the ADSM client to Retrospect now that I've had a chance
to work with it, I'd actually drop Retrospect entirely if it wasn't for the
1M of memory that the scheduler uses, we have many old Macs that just can't
take that.  I _highly_ recommend giving it a good look if you have Macs
that can take the memory usage, very very slick backup package.  My
commendations to those that worked on it.
