"save their music and funny videos to the desktop"....till they drop a 2.8GB 
movie into their roaming profile :-)

So the goal is to protect the orgs docs...not backup desktops.  Backup desktops 
is a method for getting to your goal.

Most of us would argue that redirect my docs to a server and back that up is a 
better way to get to that goal. Tell them anything on their desktop is subject 
to instantaneous loss, or redirect their desktop to the server also.

I prefer to redirect my docs and put some controls on space and file type on 
that share and let them save their music and funny videos to the desktop. The 
users get that and like the compromise.

What is there to backup that is not in a centralized location backed up by a 
centralized backup system?

Do any of you guys back up all your endpoints/PC's? We're trying to do that via 
Tivoli but troubleshooting clients is a major PITA. It seems to be ok 90% of 
the time, but the broken ones seem to take forever to find and repair, and it's 
not easy to automate resetting the password at the client PC without 
interaction on the client/endpoint side.
