    Time Machine gives you versions of all files in time, that's pretty useless. You can restore the system from a Time Machine backup, but it actually doesn't do a complete restore - some settings and files go astray.
    I do full clone backups with Carbon Copy Cloner - makes more sense to me and in any case, backups are bootable.

    • some people want versioning (to recover files they deleted or screwed up), not a system clone.ribit
