Acronis is running a 20% OFF coupon code special on their backup program Acronis True Image Home 11 during September 2008.

Just go to http://terryscomputertips.com/acronis20 and use Coupon Code ATIH20 .

If you want, you can order their “extended download time” (normal is 30 days) and/or a CD with Acronis True Image Home 11 on it (dialup users probably want to do this). Both of those are extra cost options.

If you already have an older version of Acronis True Image, you can upgrade at 40% off using this link http://terryscomputertips.com/acronisupgrade
