Rating: Summary: Worthless Review: This is the most difficult and annoying software I have ever purchased. I am extremely computer literate and found Ghost to be very difficult to use. Then after backing up my old PC, it was even more difficult to use to restore to my new PC. AND then after all this I have learned I can't get a refund because I opened the box.

Rating: Summary: Obsolete Review: This version is next to useless. Can't communicate with a USB device, which makes it very clumsy to use. NG 2003 is supposed to fix this and many other problems, but after 5 hours with it last night, I still could not make a back up. It must run from DOS, so you must boot up off a DOS disk, and then try to get the storage device recognized. I suspect it will only work well when backing up to a second internal device, not an external device
Rating: Summary: Waste of good storage media Review: Tried to clone a laptop HD to CDRs on a drive that worked fine in the past - all CDs that Ghost wrote to were completely unreadable (tested in 3 different systems running Mac OS, XP, and Linux). Plus, Ghost's actual backup system feels like it should have been phased out years ago, and is in no way easy to use, or to diagnose what went wrong after the software messes up your backups. Some software pays for itself, but this actually costs you more as you waste CD after CD trying to get it to work.
