Which is why I disagree with the "it's up to the user to backup their
PC" mentality.  Business data is ALWAYS on laptops.  Every survey shows
that a significant portion of every company's IP is only on a desktop or
laptop at any given time.  And (IMHO) adopting a "it's up to them to
back it up" is not looking after the company's data.  It's a head in the
sand approach.

Now, I agree that there are problems with using traditional backup
software to backup desktops and especially laptops.  However, if you use
a product designed to do it, I don't see the problem.
