Very true, but what do you do if you cannot log in to the off-site  
system to get to your backup files?

This, of course, is considering that you can get your computer started  
and get to the internet in spite of all the damage caused by Mother  
Nature and her offspring (earthquakes, floods, fires, landslides, etc).

In other words, make a back-up, put it in a safe and accessible  
location, have a portable generator for power, and have a wireless  
internet access. And, we all know that this equipment is affordable to  
every one of us, right?

Please disregard my apparent sarcasm, but go with the most affordable  
system that you can get and DO MAKE A BACKUP REGULARLY!!!!!!!
