This is pretty peripheral to the issues in this post, but I thought I'd
mention it anyway.  This is a very elegant solution to the backup issue in a
household.  It does full machine backups nightly of networked household
machines, and you can restore the data either file by file or rebuild the
whole machine from the ground up using an included restore CD.

 

This product is not available yet, but will probably be in public beta very
soon.  The price is expected to be in the sub $500 range as I understand
it-this is just a small box-no keyboard, no screen, that sits in an out of
the way spot and does backup and remote access for you.

(sorry if this comes across as an ad-I'm just a technical enthusiast-I'll
quit and go back to griping about the manners of the regular posters!)

 

(and it doesn't solve the offsite need-although you can manage that by
adding an external drive to the box)

Sean and Charlene, I'm really, really sorry about your loss!  That really
sucks.  I also appreciate that you shared your story and your lessons
learned with the lists.

  > 8) Finally, back up all data on your computers, often.

I would like to add one point to #8.  Keep a copy of the data backup outside
of your house.  If you can, copy your valuable data to a CD or DVD and leave
a copy at work or elsewhere.  

Best of luck with recovering what you can,
Stephen
