You will have to give some credit as I woke Adam up and told him to reply to your post. He is the OneBox, Vista Business, Wireless vs Wired guy.

PKA,
I was totally kidding. Skype is good. Many ways too message. As Adam says, OneBox is good with that as well, but he got in when the getting was good.
I used to be pretty high on offsite backup. Partly, because it had to make a local copy first, so it was 2 for 1. Unlike George, though, I do like to have many backups (back at least one month or more) onsite on my own backup hard drives. The newest version 4.0, has a built in backup. There are probably other online backups that would be better for your money. George mentions some; there are others. I am rather big on being able to go to the online storage and see my backups. They aren't any good unless you can download them and check them for errors.
You can do that with AC's offsite backup but not quite as easily, and you certainly can't go to their servers and look at your backups.
