Hey,

I got a macbook on Saturday and have been enjoying it but im having trouble finding a good backup program. What does everyone else use to back up music, documents, pictures etc?

Thanks!

When Leopard comes out you'll be able to use the built in Time Machine, which will automatically back up everything on your hard drive whenever it's downloaded or changed or installed.

Carbon Copy Cloner is also easy to use software.
