I'm gonna say this for the people that doesn't know this software.
The people (me too) that use bootcamp, maybe don't think about a backup copy of the windows partition.
If you are planning to change the hd of your mac, or simply, you you don't have any way to backup, I have found winclone.
I makes an image of the bootcamp partition.
What you can do with this?
Few days ago, I have changed the internal hd of the MBP (200>>320gb) and you can clone the mac os plus partition from the old to the new drive, but you can't clone the windows partition.
You can clone, but doesn't work.
The first you can do it's make the image of the partition to the mac os x partition, delete the bootcamp partition, clone the mac to the new drive, create again the windows part in the new drive and restore the whole part, and you don't loose anything.
Winclone it's free, but you can donate if you want.
I have donate because have save my xp partition.
Enjoy mac.
