Default Easy Geek question

Can anyone recommend a good freeware program for making a
constantly-updated backup of my system? I just got a 200GB external
HD, and would like to install a program that keeps track of any
changes I make to my internal HD and keeps a mirror copy on the
external HD, just in case I have another total system crash like last
year. I also want to backup SWMBOs system on the same external drive,
if possible, although hers would be backed up intermittently (whenever
I managed to bring the external HD over to her office and update).

Thanks, and, uh....TL.

Some of the new external disk drives come with a small version of
Retrospect that works reasonably well. As you already have a disk without
it, I don't know how valuable the info will be.

BTW, Retrospect backs up periodically, not continuously
