Cool! I am jealous. To compensate for this, I will barrage you with questions:
1) How much space does Time Machine take up? Obviously, if you back up everything once, you need the same amount of HD space as you already have used, unless you do some compression, but it's still going to be like 60+% of the HD space. So, if there is backups available for days, weeks, months . . . it must be incremental just tracking changes to files/folders, right?
Also, if you have the backups scheduled, are there options to wake the computer to do the backup? What about mounting a network drive, then unmount when done?
2) Are there any minimum hardware requirements available yet?
That's all for now. I'll think of more later.
Thanks!
