I have played some with the Windows 7 built in backup and found it slow 
and tedious compared with Time Machine on my Mac (which is truly 
superb), but it might be sufficient for your needs. You plug it in and 
Windows ask you if you want to back up to the drive, you say yes, and it 
chugs along. You can then do it again later, or set up a schedule for 
backups.

I would like to know if there is _any_ backup package for Windows which 
is as smooth and unintrusive as Time Machine, as I would really like 
something better for my PC at work.

Any experiences to share?
