[QUOTE="mshale, post: 651941, member: 35519"] I noticed that os x uses a home folder but it in the users folder. I had a Ubuntu box, and it seems like os x doesn't use the /home folder like Ubuntu. What actually goes on in the /home folder in os x? It is totally locked down and doesn't get backed up in Time Machine. [/QUOTE]
