   Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to know things
with such conviction that contrary evidence has no effect.

   BACKUP /PHYSICAL is nice when the destination is a VMS
system, but a raw disk image can be used more widely.

   Hmmm.  Interesting.  I don't think that I ever tried one
of those on a non-Mac system before.  (That was a "Microsoft
Excel for Apple Macintosh" installation disk.  "Disk Format
800K", "Version 4.0".)
