If you have Windows 7 Pro, Windows Backup is actually fairly usable as
an image-backup tool, though it's nearly worthless for file-level
restore.  If you have Windows 7 Home, it's intentionally crippled.  I'm
actually considering a hybrid approach - Win7 native image backup for
bare-metal recovery, combined with Bacula for file-level restore of user
data.
