Matthew:

Thanks ... my postings should indicate that I really like simple and 
your suggestion is the one I am currently considering. I want to check 
out G4L now that I have better doc material, but if Clonezilla is as 
easy as most people say I am still leaning to it.

Yes, there has been alot of good advice and I really appreciate all the 
suggestions and options. I like it when posts to this list prove this 
fruitful
