Yes, you can perform a restore from one Newton's
backup onto another Newton.
Might I suggest that you use a RAM card though? This
will make the entire process immensly more reliable! I
don't back to my desktop any more. I always use cards.
I keep them all over the place at home and work...I'm
always sure that I have no later than a single day's
away from a backup...and I don't have to worry about
connectivity.

Why is that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life
in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
