Re: NT Backup and Restore

And yet another insightful response from the gallary. Telling me to purchase
third party software is hardly trying to help when I expicitly stated that I
wanted to use MS Backup. I thought I typed that in plain english but I
suppose some do tend to ignore and spew out what they themselves want hear.
I am willing to bet the two of you have matching pocket protectors.

As far as learning to use a newgroup, I am completely dumbfounded that
someone is so anal retentivie about a post in 2 differnt groups that they use
up their valueable time just to scould another. This truth is I simply do
not care what you think.. no really, I don't. You use this board as you see
fit and I will continue to do the same. If I were to get an email from MS
suggesting a different way to post then and only then would I change my
practice. I have a recommendation of my own. Why don't cretians such as
yourself create your own board and wine and bitch back and forth. It was the
intelligent community I was soliciting a response from anyway.
