That's generally how I use mine.  But I don't think I have a machine with a
CF on it anymore.  Although my netbook has two SD slots.

Right--the prevalence of SD slots is a huge win for CiderPress
users.  And CiderPress makes it a trivial operation to copy
the entire volume between SD and CF, making one a backup for
the other.

Frankly, CiderPress is so good that it makes getting a Windows
machine just as an Apple II peripheral a good idea.  ;-)
