Good Tip

Thank you for this great tip. I just used Time Machine for the first time earlier this morning. I'm at my parents' house for the weekend, and a sister let me connect her external drive to my MacBook. Everything seems to have gone as expected, and Time Machine is very accessible. I've got a Genius Bar appointment tomorrow afternoon, and the confirmation email I received last week told me to do a backup. I'm definitely purchasing an external drive in the next few days.
