You don't actually *need* to back up 2G. If you have the original Windows and 
Apps disks, they can be re-installed anyway. Yes, the re-configuring can be a 
hassle, but there are ways around that (backup the programs separately to the 
data and do the data more often than the execs). You don't really want to 
back up all those thousands of WWW cache files anyway. Go into somewhere 
like PC World and have a look (don't buy) at the various backup devices.

Shit it may be, but all the new releases are for it, not Win 3.1x. Isn't 
marketing wonderful. IMNSHO, if you can afford it, skip it and go for Win NT4.
