Active@ from ntfs.com (NOT Cheap)

[DaveA]

Active@ Boot Disk is a bootable LiveCD/DVD/USB Flash Disk that allows you to boot up any computer and fix most startup and PC configuration problems. Use Active@ Boot Disk to recover your lost data, manage HDD partitions, reset Windows passwords, make computer system backups [disk images], securely erase data and there is much more.

I have not used this but it was shown last night at a computer user group meeting. It looks very good, and the was presented by a former MS Windows 95 manager. He does a lot of System support and this is one of his main tools.

Dave,

I think I must have missed something. Is there a specific point you are trying to make about NTFS?

Thanks, that makes more sense now.

Come on Dave, $110 for something that fixes everything that MS has charged us 5-10 time that over the years for operating systems that come not ready for prime time. That's a DEAL !!!

Enough of the Microsoft bashing, please!

Before going to the site, the presenter stated that for users the package he uses runs about $200 US and he pays as a company $1,000 US.

I have sent him a email to find out what package he is using, which MAY include ALL of the "ntfs.com" programs.

Since some of the Lounge Users are Professional, I thought I would include that their price would be much higher.
