I wonder how many home-based computers back up
regularly? Again, I
know lots of people that don't citing reasons that it's just too
hard to set up, they have to buy extra hardware etc. Some of the
address books, pictures and home movies on those machines might be
irreplaceable though.
How many people, either home or business, understand the necessity of
keeping a backup copy off-site? If your house burns down or business
is flooded, it doesn't make any difference how often you did backups
if your backups never left the premises.
Once a month or so, I swap a set of DVDs that contain important
information (when you get down to what's REALLY important, it's
surprising how little it is) that's kept in our safe deposit box at
our bank.
