Back Up Back Up Back Up part 5

The really great discovery to emerge from the whole debacle was that
Mozy delivered on the promise.
I had all my files backed up, even the music files and the stuff I'd
saved just 12 hours before the disaster.

All I needed to do was download Mozy's interface onto the new baby and
log on (I'd forgotten my login details, but mozy emailed those to me
within 5 minutes)

As soon as I logged on I was asked if I wanted to register the new
computer and restore.
It took 24 hours, non stop, but I went home with all my data.

I will never, NOT NEVER, work without a continuous online, offsite
backup EVER again.

And neither should you!
