I hate computers at times. If you sent me e-mail between July 6 and July 26 and I didn't reply I am either ignoring you or it was lost due to a corrupted hard drive and a screwed up weekly backup that failed to restore.

Now, I will add an online backup to my local backup. Has anyone used anything like Corbonite?

Larry, we've used Iron Mountains online backup offering. It's really not all that different. There really aren't as many differences between the internet based hosted backup solutions as you would think. The biggest issue was getting the initial backup, as it took quite a while. But there was a great deal of compression, and subsequent backups were pretty transparent and it seemed to work pretty well. Every once in a while run a recovery test just to keep comfortable and you should be golden.

I've looked into SugarSync and it looks to have the most features:

Carbonite, Mosy, just about any of them work for personal back up. I can get name of business based one my buddy and his partners are selling time on as its double backed up one east and west coast and you can tailor your encryption plan. or email Paul Crew at http://www.thetechmen.net/contact.html.
Dont get me wrong he is local here but can give you good information and maybe find you someone/thing that can help. Good guy, Been my friend for years.
