I'm a long time user of both SuperDuper! and Time Machine, SuperDuper! 
for recovery from a drive failure and Time Machine for recovery of a 
prior versiion of a file.

As a somewhat amusing aside, I keep a SuperDuper! clone on a portable 
drive and when I go to the Genius Bar at the Apple store I take that 
drive with me as it is far easier than lugging my iMac. At the Genius 
Bar I  can then boot from that portable drive and if any changes are 
made to correct a problem I can then take the portable drive home and 
restore my iMac drive from it. I've received a number of "That's a 
great idea" remarks from different Geniuses!
