Well, doh, the thing you probably want to do is buy an external FireWire hard disk -- you can get one for well under $200. Then, you'd partition *that* drive (which would be brand new), and use SuperDuper! to back up to it.

You can partition it into three partitions, one for each computer, as long as you've bought one large enough to do so.

Don't partition your internal drive: that doesn't make sense, because if the drive fails, it'll lose the backup as well!

That get you started?
