Acronis True Image Home 2010-does it have to be resident??

Thread needs solution

I am a long time user of Acronis TI 10 on Windows XP and now Vista. Works fine.
I do not have ATI 2010 yet but got an offer to upgrade.
A few quick questions:

1. Do I need Acronis® True Image Home 2010 if I use Windows 7 in the future on a 32 bit machine?

2. Is there a way to make ATI 2010 not resident all the time if I want to backup manually like I do now? I assume that ATI 2010 will install and be resident as a service or 2. Or can I just kill the services once they start?

3. I am hopeful this program does not run like Norton products and have a verify module to assume you are licensed properly. I always am licensed properly and any such verification apps take up memory.

Thanks in advance.
Sincerely
Peter

If you do only manual backups and use the bootable CD the software doesn't even have to be installed. And I believe that the ver 10 CD will backup and restore Win 7. I know for sure that ver 2009 will.

I have gone to the other extreme. I use only the rescue CD to boot from and create (and maybe some day, restore) images to a network or USB hard drive.

I don't trust installing any part of ATI on my XP Pro PC.

I use the free QuickShadow Copy to monitor My Documents and copy any new/changed files to my NAS.
