Bill Boyd says the same things Dick Eastman writes about in his genealogy newsletter. And not only is it about the back ups. After you back up, CHECK the back up to make sure you did it properly. You may THINK you've backed it up, but when you bring it back into your computer, you find out it's not done correctly.
And pick something (such as the 1st of the month) to do your back ups. Do it monthly at the bare minimum. I think Doug says he does his daily if he's been working on genealogy that day.
