I currently back up incrementally by copying to an older Pentium system which otherwise acts as a file/print server. In addition, I use the MS briefcase feature in Windows to copy important stuff (eg source code) to my laptop, and this is really easy to do on a directory basis. It also has the advantage of allowing me to simply pick up the laptop and go in a morning when I'm going on-site.
Otherwise, why not use the simple system of one floppy for each day of the week; on Friday night, you simply do a full backup to tape or a new CD of all your data (you don't need to back up the programs because you have legal copies of the original software - you do, don't you?).
