10.5: deficient Time Machine backups

>it failed to create ANY user accounts (both times!)

That's odd. I had an hdd go down last week on my macbook (horrible horrible grinding sounds, brought tears to my eyes).

Restored from the Time Machine backup, and everything was as it should be.

In short, works for me - user accounts and all.
