Do you need some help learning how to select and use Windoze backup
hardware and software?
I don't know about older editions, but Win7 has this spiffy little "backup
and recovery wizard" that not only backs up all your goodies to an
external device, network share, etc, but it also will burn a bootable DVD
in order to facilitate the recovery.

Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical
minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd
by the clean end.
