I'm at work and not at home with my mac.

What is the best backup software for mac?

I'm surfing and looking at different software. I found an app to defrag the drive, Do macs need to be defragged?

Toast or Popcorn? Is Toast really worth the extra bucks?
I plan on downloading MacTheRipper tonight.

Defragging not necessary. Restart the machine every so often
Get OnyX

Buying TechTool Pro would be a wise decision

No. The Apple Care version is very limited. The big version does much, much and has saved my a** at least twice over the years
Amongst other things it, like DiskWarrior, can repair the system if it becomes corrupt

I'm getting Quicken for mac when I save up money. I just had to use the windows machine to do some work in that and I feel so harrassed. First the antivirus wanted to update, then it wanted to restart, then when it restarted it found hardware for the palm that is already installed. Grrrrrrrrrrrr I feel so violated.

XP can miss Amy, Amy just got her Quicken onto the mac and Toast too. All that is left to get off windows is the geocaching software and I'm working on that.
