We're not former IT specialists with 25 years experience, but we're not Harry Home Computer User either. Frankly, we're all over the map in terms of our sophistication and savvy when it comes to computers. But most of us are smart enough to know that we need to back up our data because it's mission critical - our livelihood depends upon being able to access that information. I believe most of us do backups, but I can't speak for everyone. But then again, neither can you. Thank you for letting us know you think we're a bunch of drooling idiots. What a excellent strategy to convince us all to use Linux!

The average home computer user NEVER thinks about backups UNTIL they are needed. Furthermore, probably at least 95% (or higher) of them don't even know what a backup is, let alone know that you need the "users" folder. <snip> For anyone who backs up their data (which should be everyone!!),
