Qdea has released Backup Simplicity 1.0, a new Mac OS X backup utility. Based on the backup engine in Synchronize! Pro X, this utility makes a bootable backup of your Mac to a directly attached IDE or FireWire drive once a day. It can keep a history of old versions of files, and can keep a copy of the history on the main disk for safekeeping in the event that the backup disk fails. Introductory pricing until Jan. 15, 2004 is US$14.95 for a one-year license.
