Retrospect 8.0 Beta 5 now Available

[Martin S. Boswell]

I would also like very much to see the Retrospect 8 engine running on  
PPC.  I have a rack full of G5 Xserves, any one (or more) of which I  
could use for my backup server, but do not have funds to purchase new  
hardware for this purpose.

When Retrospect 8 is released, if the engine does not run on PPC, I'll  
have to turn to other vendors to replace my aging Retrospect 6 server.
