Thank you Jesse for the compliment on the sig. I figured that only the windows side will be copied. Simple Backup came with the DVDRW from IBM that I installed on Desktop. It'll copy everything down to the icons and wallpaper last used and screensaver like acronis but you better have a Windows install disk ergo 2000/XP or Vista to start of with. after that you just install CD or DVD and take off from there. I wish I could find some software just like it that would work with Linux. There probably is some. I'm just not aware of it yet and with Linux nothing is simple if you are used to Windows because Linux works different.
