Rodrigo is correct. UNIX filesystem "dumps" do what Ghost, Drive
Copy/Image, etc... do for NT filesystems. Microsoft does _not_ offer an
equivalent, let alone the nasty SAM-SID non-sense, hence their
existence.
Otherwise, I also use the archive/unarchive method either via 'find|cpio
-p' or 'tar c|tar x'. That will work with ReiserFS too, let alone just
about any UNIX flavor

There are broadcast/multicast tools for UNIX as well.

It is mathematically impossible for someone who makes more than you
to be anything but richer than you. Any tax rate that penalizes them
will also penalize you similarly (to those below you, and then below
them). Linear algebra, let alone differential calculus or even ele-
mentary concepts of limits, is mutually exclusive with US journalism.
So forget even attempting to explain how tax cuts work. ;->
