They are the same.  Just some systems use different names.  Backup or 
Restore.  Actually, a Restore is when you go back and Backup your PC and 
later you Restore it but in my WinXP it only has Restore.  Kind of silly but 
that's the way it is.  I just did a "find" on my system and I have a lot of 
"backup" there but all of them is within my other programs.  Not my system 
itself.
