Every MS Windows OS I've used (since 3.0x in the 8086 days) has
shipped with a free backup program.

Many were basically useless, but I have to believe the post-XP ones
may be a bit better.

Your statement beggars belief - third party programs are only reason
to run a Microsoft OS in the first place. You really have computers
that have **only** Microsoft software on them??

You use Paint rather than Photoshop to edit graphics?

If it's true I'm truly boggled, words fail me, I'm speechless - and
that's hard to do! 8-)

It's like saying you would only put a Ford stereo in your car - or
rather you want to buy a Michelin car so it'll be compatible with your
tires, or - OK I'll shut up, be speechless. . .
