Thanks for pointing this out Les,
I don't think I need this sort of functionality *yet* at least, makes 
the decision easier!

Cheers,
Jed

The big win for backuppc is that it will pool identical files even if 
found on different machines.  If you only back up a single machine or 
don't have much duplication, other programs might serve you as well.
