Without violating non-disclosure, Chuq, can you tell us
if one of the differences between DiskFit and Retrospective
is the ability in Retrospective to maintain "backups" of
files after they have been deleted from a hard disk? In 
other words, can you tell us if Retrospective is a genuine
archive maintenance utility instead of a hard disk backup
utility?

Why do I want to know? Because I very much want a genuine
archive maintenance utility that will allow me to keep on
floppies versions of files that I don't use any more but am
too conservative (read chicken) to permanently delete.
