Downloaded and installed - easy Setting up the account - easy Backing up the files - took a few minutes no big deal
Here is where the only complaint I have lies: I cant seem to find a way to view what files are on their server. The "recover" simply allows you to recover all files or choose a date you backed up but you cant see the files....so there really is no confirmation or way to verify they have actually backed anything up.
Alright, well let's see what happens now.

Newport International Group Subsidiary 'Spare Backup' Receives Additional Purchase Order from CompUSA to Significantly Increase Units for Manhattan Stores Monday August 1, 4:01 pm ET
PALM DESERT, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 1, 2005--Newport International Group (OTCBB:NWPO - News) announced today that its Spare Backup Inc. subsidiary has received an additional purchase order from CompUSA, one of the nation's leading retailers with 246 locations. This comes as a follow on to the previously announced 3,500 unit order from CompUSA and will be delivered specifically to CompUSA's Manhattan locations to meet what both companies believe will be stronger demand due to the high concentration of small business customers in that city. The online service will be marketed to individuals and small business users at a cost of $15.99 per month which includes 5 gigabytes of remote storage. Spare Backup will offer these additional units in six-month prepaid packages through CompUSA's Manhattan locations. ADVERTISEMENT
Commenting on this second order, Cery Perle, CEO of Newport International Group Inc., stated: "We are pleased that CompUSA has chosen to increase the number of units in Manhattan as we both believe the high concentration of small- and medium-sized business in that city will provide a strong customer base for our product.

Another Soft PR announcement. Didnt even mention how many additional orders. Nothing about actually launching the service on the website?! Or any news about Dell/Office Depot? Well, maybe more PR in the morning.
Expecting another weak day tomorrow. Keep hanging on though!

Here is what happened today... NITE, a Market Maker, decided to drive down the price (manipulate).. Get as many shares as possible by pretty much putting a block on everyone else... In a way this is GREAT news... b/c this MM KNOWS this stock is going up... He wanted to buy CHEAP and get as many shares as possible... If you noticed NITE somehow got knocked off the boards at 3:17pm EST... for about 2 minutes... Look what happened during those 2 minutes... The stock rose 5 cents in just under 2 minutes! Then NITE got back onboard after his probable malfunction and blocked everyone again!
This stock is going to be great... Dell news will be soon, much more news about other things too! Only good things ahead! Hopefully NITE doesn't control us tomorrow and we should be set!

Well said. NITE will allow us to breakout eventually. NITE is apparantly loading up for a reason as well. It is good to be on the same side as the MM, because after all don't they cash in when they let it run too?

golf - you don't understand that it really doesn't matter what happens today, unless you were planning to sell right away. It is just a matter of time (and not too long of a wait either) that NWPO is unleashed to get to even higher levels than it already reached. After the big players and MM's are all loaded up, we see some Dell PR, everyone will enjoy the ride.
