Problem with the PB system is its not a fully finished installation they back up so it overwrites the files but then still has to do stuff this imo is flawed . They would only have to set up one machine all the way back it up then create clone drives for all the other machines of this model still you cant expect them to think lol. IMO they should have a recovery of some sort and provide OS disc and Drivers
