Re: Off topic backup query



Thanks Carl, I'll look into Dropbox as well. I might have to have two cloud backup services, which seems crazy . . . . but it bothers me that we don't seem to have a terminology for this most important kind of backup.

Dropbox has this feature as well. They call it "version history", and
even free Dropbox accounts save these multiple backups for 30 days. I
can't tell you how many times this has saved my skin. It's not that the
need arises that often, but when it does, it's always a big relief, and
a huge work saver, to be able to recover the last "good" version of a
file. I couldn't live without it.
