has anyone tried restoring from a backup during a reformat yet?

I'm having a lot of minor issue which are making me consider reformatting, but I still don't have faith in Time Machine and am debatint nuking my TMbackups and doing a manual copy of my data to my ext hard drive.

I've had mild success with a Time Machine backup/restore on a clean install of Leopard. I just decided to erase and install and start from scratch.

After I installed leopard and backed up with Time Machine, I had a lot of minor issues too. So I decided to do a clean install and restore my data from the Leopard Backup. It worked perfectly. Now I don't have anymore issues.
