Installfest related question

[Stephen M]

Harold,
Todd has a few ISOs of WINs 7 and I might have some myself.  Yes WINs 7 can
make a snapshot of the system or make a recovery disk which would be
something you could do.  I've never done it myself but there are great
articles out there on google to tell you how.  If anything you could wait
until next Saturday and some of us will have ISOs for you to play with.
