John,

>1) does the new DiskFit offer a more convenient way to exclude 
folders 
>   than the  old "brackets" [FolderName] technique?

Yes, DiskFit Pro in SmartSets allows you to use a "Folder Selection" 
to choose exactly which folders you want to back up. This is 
more flexible than the Exclude [Folders] option. 

>2) does this (exclusion methood) work for duplicate (image) 
backups? 

No, sorry. There are still no file or folder selection options 
for Duplicates. 

>3) does this (exclusion methood) work for incremental backups? 

Yes, the Folder Selection option is remember for incremental 
backups in a SmartSet. 

Additional features:

DiskFit Pro 1.0 knows all about System 7, does not back up this 
large VM file, backs up and restores custom icons, knows about 
aliases, and has two new features: the DiskFit Pro Reminder (lets 
you schedule Reminders to do SmartSet backups) and "Create SmartSet aliases..." 
(Optionally creates a folder of aliases if you run under 
System 7 which point to your files backed up in your SmartSet. This 
allows you to retrieve files by simply finding the alias on your 
hard disk, saying "Find original" and then inserting the SmartSet 
disk that is requested.). 

You also get to call Dantz for Tech Support.

If you have any questions, please feel free to give me a call.
