Actually, the current release of DiskFit is 1.5. It's considerably faster
than 1.4 was and interfaces with Multifinder better.

DiskFit and Retrospect really are similar products that do things
differently. DiskFit is designed specifically to do backups of a partition
to protect against failure. Retrospect is a program designed more towards
long-term archiving and retrieval. The difference between, say, keeping your
hard disk backed up and storing/organizing your public domain floppies.

Retrospect is in beta. Because of that, I can't really say much, since I'm
under non-disclosure. But I think that people who are thinking that
Retrospect as a replacement for DiskFit don't understand the product. They
do different things. While they're similar in intent, the approaches are
much different. They're very much complimentary products.
