You know, I haven’t heard of this, but it looks useful. Over the weekend, developer twocanoes.com released version 2.1.2 of Winclone, the company’s backup utility that allows users to make a quick clone of their Boot Camp partition as well as restore from that image. The new version, a two megabyte download, fixes a minor issue with quoting of gptfresh that caused issues at the end of restores.
Winclone 2.1.2 is available for free and requires an Intel-based Mac running Mac OS X 10.5 or later to install and run.
If you’ve tried Winclone and have an opinion about it, let us know in the comments.

Winclone is a bit rough around the edges, but when I migrated to a new laptop recently, it saved me endless headache reinstalling Windows. I cloned my old Boot Camp, then restored it to the new machine, which was similar enough in architecture that Windows could update drivers.
