I don't use Linux. Sure I played around with it a couple of times, but because I write about Windows, that's what I use. So for me, the news that FarStone has a Linux version of RestoreIT isn't terribly exciting.
But I'm guessing that if you're a Linux user -- and from your e-mail I'm realizing lots of you are -- this could be good news.
The program, like the Windows version, lets you roll back your PC in case of an operating system failure (what, does Linux do that?), find deleted files, and backtrack from the effects of malicious attacks from spyware or worms.
According to FarStone, you can reset your entire system to an earlier, pre-crash, pre-virus state, even if the operating system won't boot. Pricing isn't available, but I'm guessing it'll be in the $40 range.
