Acronis. It is $49 and the Open Source in me still wants to spin up a
BackupPC instance but time becomes the deciding factor. Anyway Acronis does

Just wanted to keep the list updated on my Windows backup trek. It looks
like BackupPC is out of the question as it requires a LINUX box to handle

I would definitely take another look at BackupPC if you are backing up
