PERSONAL NOTES

• I really dislike GoBACK in Windows 2000 and XP.  I've
  found that removing it altogether reduces the number
  of times you have to recover.  And XP's SystemRestore
  is more useful, even though it has less overall
  functionality that GoBack.

• Many of these configuration savers were more useful
  in the Win9x days, and are unnecessary with the robust
  Windows 2000 and XP.

• ConfigSafe and other products from ImagineLan are still
  very handy tools.
