-       The format of UNIX data has been changed.  If you captured any WIMs with

+       On UNIX-like systems, you can now backup and restore device nodes, named
+       pipes, and sockets.  In addition, 32-bit user and group IDs are now

        On Windows, sparse file attributes are no longer set on extracted files.
