Author Repeat Restores create Multiple copies of pictures

I have PSA 2 on both my home office computer and my laptop. (Both XP). I do a full back from my home office to my home office hard drive. I then do a restore to my laptop over my wireless network. My reason is to be able to show pictures on the road, AND
to use the laptop as a backup.

The restore on the laptop replaces My Catalog, but instead of replacing each picture, it makes a copy!! Doing a weekly backup fills up my hard drive pretty quickly.

Any Suggestions??

Thanks

Have you tried incremental back up instead of Full back up every time? I guess using that you will be able to have only new files on your laptop instead of all files.

I tried the incremental. It takes the old backup, plus the incremental to restore the total. And, guess what, creates yet another copy of the old pictures and adds the incremental. So good idea, but not the solution.
