How much is your time worth? How about your data? I bet 1 file is worth a
lot more that $119.95.

Even if you never add another PC, think of it as 1 client license for
$119.95.

$119.95 (MacWarehouse) for a 5 client license is not expensive, besides, it
works very well and allow you to manage the backup from one point, as
opposed to using two different backup programs. You are already managing a
Retrospect backup, this way you don't need to modify any backup routines.

Remember that in order to backup a PC client, you need to be using a recent
version of Retrospect, and have TCP/IP enabled on both the Server and the
client.

If all you need is basic backup, Windows comes with a backup program
included. Yech!!
