Backing Up Your Files Using .Mac
Backing up your files is one of those things that most of us talk about, but seldom do on a regular basis. However, if you've ever experienced a catastrophic failure of your hard drive, a current backup can mean the difference between a simple restoration process, or the permanent loss of all your precious information. In addition, backups are not enough; they should be "off site" backups. In other words, your backup disks should not be in the same location as your computer (what if there were a fire). The good news is that owning a .Mac account makes backing up and restoring files easy (they supply you with the software), and you can create off-site backups using a CD/DVD or your iDisk.
