If you have realized how great it would be to have a current bootable system on an external drive, keep looking (hint: SuperDuper). Synk is ok and I've used it for a long time for home folder backups. But it isn't quite ready to do the whole enchilada for you. Then again, neither is Apple's own Backup 3.0...

And yes, that new hierarchical log needs an "expand all" function. It'll drive you nuts...

Home folder ok; bootable system not yet ready - Kudrabar

You're wrong about this -- I've been making perfect system clones with Synk Backup and Synk Standard since v. 6 first came out, and I am just as able to startup from those clones as I am with SuperDuper! or Carbon Copy Cloner system clones. Try again and you'll see.
