I've been looking into online backups, I currently upload my finished JPGs to my flickr Pro account, but I want something to be able to back up files besides just JPGS. After doing some research, I see that Mozy IS available on a Mac. What do you use? If you use Mozy, do you use the business or the MozyHome?

Or, what do you use besides Mozy? Is it Mac friendly?

THANKS!

we were going to use Mozy, but after more research we learned that we shouldn't really use the home acct, and the business was more than we wanted. Also, because it's not an archival system, if the files are no longer on your 1 computer (you can only use one machine per account) then they will also be removed from their backup database... not what we wanted as we us a lot of external Hd's and try to keep our desktop pretty clear.

Also, the software and encoding wasn't what we wanted to go with.

If you want to do online archival backup, I recommend Amazon's S3 (?) system instead. For us, we're sticking with the externals and DVD backups for now.
I know Johnny backs up some of his stuff to his server too--which is a great idea.

Okay, so this looks interesting. Anyone use it? I will keep reading to see what I can find.
