    Can Norton 360 create backup drive images like Ghost or Acronis TrueImage can?

    I'm not sure if Norton 360 can only back up files, or if it can create drive images.

    Basically, I'm debating which backup + security software to use.

    1. Norton 360
    2. Norton Internet Security 2007 + Acronis TrueImage

    Norton 360 does not create drive images. It will only backup files and/or folders.

    Which is the better of the two: Acronis or Ghost?

    Acronis is child's play to use. No manual necessary.
