The US Mint announced today that it is recalling all of the Missouri quarters that are part of its program featuring quarters from each state.
This action is being taken after numerous reports that the new quarters will not work in parking meters, toll booths, vending machines, pay phones or any other coin operated devices.  The problem lies in the unique design of the Missouri quarter, which was designed by a team of Ozark specialists.
Apparently, the duct tape holding the two dimes and the nickel together keeps jamming up the machines.

The problem is with the site and its code. You can't correct it but there is a workaround:

When I try to access ESPN360, I often get the following message.

"A script of this movie is causing Adobe Flash 9 to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive.  Do you want to abort the script."

The message I understand, however how do I correct the problem?

My vote is for SuperDuper!

Rock solid, fairly priced, user friendly, and great customer support.

To me, this is one of the apps that I consider absolutely essential.

If I could "vote" more than once, indeed I would!

BTW, the backup drive you ordered, is it FireWire and does it support OS booting?

Looks like SuperDuper is going to win by a landslide. The drive I have ordered is from Other World Computing..Mercury Elite 80 GB. Firewire, and I take for granted it supports booting. The SD site recommends OWC among others.

2006 / Backup software advice needed

I have ordered an external drive and need help on backup software. I have kinda narrowed it down to Retrospect, Carbon Copy Cloner, and SuperDooper, and would like your input. Needless to say I would like something simple, and easy to use for both backup and restore.
