I agree with this. I love your site, because there are no optical
gimmicks, bells and whistles. Its pure content.

Because of actual issues at work, I checked your page about Media
Lifespan. I found your table much too optimistical. Just do the
following test: Record 10 DVDs from different vendors on your
drive. Then put 'em for 6 weeks into a cool, dark locker.
Now take a DVD-drive from a different vendor (because in case of
hardware wreckage you cannot use your original drive) and restore
the data. If you loose just one single file, your DVD-method is
not recommendable for backing up your OS. And I guarantee, your
will lose more than one file. (Murphy says, this one file will be
the registry hive of your Windows OS.)

So please give us the sources, where you get your knowledge from.

And BTW: I fully agree with your recommendations for the backup
for stubborns! :-)
