A bit of history.

Ghost was orignally written by Binary Research, and later offered itself to Symantec in '98 (wiki).

In '03 they purchased Powerquest, which made a competeing disk imaging/editing program partition magic and DriveImage.

I imagine that parts of the DriveImage code are being ported to use the ghost UI.

Frankly, no tech should be without an older version of Ghost AND PartitionMagic. (and if they work on servers, ServerMagic as well) They are awesome programs which can make processes which are otherwise a hassle and very time consuming a lot easier.
