Looks like the terms CLONING(Ghosting), and IMAGING are getting muddled.

Norton Ghost does both clone or image, but I use clone because my back up D:\ drive is an exact working duplicate of my C:\ and in a jam I don't have to mess around restoring. I can immediately change drives, and keep on working with whatever I'm doing, and do the restore later.
My understanding that cannot be done with imaging as imaged files are non-bootable and must be restored befor they can be used.
There must be some reason why Norton Ghost offers both.
Don't mind being corrected if wrong. Pays to learn something new.
Only reason I brought this up is I don't believe we're all on the same page.
