One of the best giveaways IMHO.:banana:thumbs:

Heres a simple pros and cons list:

Pros
* Works fast and effeciently
* You can copy a whole hard drive or partition.
* Supports RAID.
* Works on hard disks of upto 1.5 TB in size.
* You can create a bootable disk.
* Has some “error checking” features.
* You can password protect the program.
Cons
* You can “copy” a partition but you can’t “image” it.
* Only supports FAT, FAT32 and NTFS formats.
* Interface is slightly unprofessional

EDIT:It is renamed Easeus Partition Master now

762060 2009-04-03 09:17:00 May I ask what is wrong with open source partitioning tools? Sweep (90)
762061 2009-04-03 09:17:00 Well get the professional version now!

My fav feature is the boot disk function, makes it almost better than gparted;)

Nothing-I use gparted all the time!

Its just that there are some good closed source programs too;)

And we all love freebies:p

762063 2009-04-03 09:27:00 But gparted is free, works and is not time limited as to installation and why would I want to download another 35 megs or so? Sweep (90)
762064 2009-04-03 10:23:00 Gparted requires you to boot into its linux environment just to partition. even for simple thing. Both programs have there advantages/disadvantages of course Blam (54)

And the other ones magically work without any OS? ;)

No, it means you can do it within the person's current OS(Most probably windows:p)
