From 1969 til 2013, we had a deal that if you backed up every day and then used a bad rf command, restoration to the beginning of the day would be a couple hours of work, and that's it. Now, when you ill-advisably use rm, you need to go out and buy, then configure, a totally new machine, before you can even begin to restore from backup. And be careful: /dev/sda1 might not be the same on the new box.
