Larry,

You would be better off running a filesystem with snapshots and
mirrored local disks for that type of data recovery.  I would still do
Bacula backups, but only daily so that you have something to send
offsite.

I mean, how do you expect to restore a system if it dies completely?
Do you need to have them working again right away with no real
downtime execpt and hour's loss of data?  Does the end user just move
to a new system?
