So we have basically 3 different reasons to backup: - To archive our work (incremental backup)

Am I missing anything?
- To feel smug when someone posts yet another "I lost everything how do I recover I didn't make a backup" message. Never underestimate the power of shaudenfreude.
(To be perfectly honest, we only back up our home directories and precious media/work files around the /hacienda del mono/. Living dangerously is my middle name. Names. Both are my middle names.)
