No. I've never used it, but a friend of mine does. And it takes forever for
him to do a backup. So I assumed it was dd.  Maybe it's that other OS X
disk clone 'backup.'

But when he's done, he doesn't have an incremental backup, just a clone.
Better than nothing, but not wonderful for programmers and lawyers who have
to retrieve last week's version.

Amanda, IMHO, is the proper backup. But 'simple', 'user friendly', and
'amanda' should never appear in the same paragraph. There's significant
futzing required to get it going. At least mine did, back in the DLT days...
