My advice is buy an external harddrive and Acronis (they sell it at bol.nl)
so you always have all your stuff save even when your house is on fire you only have to grab the harddisc.
my puter crashed 3 times, well the last time it crashed i indeed lost all on my harddisk, but i have most of my stuff, at the hosting and in gmail email boxes , that are my backups, i did made some backup years ago, to be sure i made 4 copies, i tested them all and they all worked, till the time i realy needed it, then i was lucky that only one backup worked, so since then i use gmail accounds, my hostings. the only thing i never got back was some content setts which i lost that time also. i think you are all right and i should take more care of my backups
