I've had such kinds of exchanges before with people, who don't like
doing _proper_ backups, and they always seem to think it's too much
trouble to learn how to make one, and how to do one. After the first
time they really lose data, or wind up with a tangled mess that doesn't
boot and run properly, they suddenly change their minds.
I know it does sound like a lot, but in the end it's less trouble
to make proper backups.
I've heard that the biggest market for burglar alarms is people
who have been broken into. Others just don't see the necessity.
