So. Now that the introductions are out of the way, I'd like to address a rather serious issue. Backups.

Now of course you, the reader, have backups running, right? Of course you do.

Especially if you run a business, and your business relies...no...depends on the data that's on those funny beeping boxes on your desks, and in your server room(closet).

So, you test those backups, right?

Right?

Well, I figure that if I'm going to start posting at a site, a basic introduction is probably in order.

My name is W. "Ian" Blanton, and I am, at the time of this writing, the "Consulting Group Director" *Cue the Trumpets!* here at Tech Superpowers, which means that I'm in charge of the "Onsite Consultants", the folks who show up at your home or business and try to help you with your problems, fix your systems and recommend new spiffy stuff that might help you do your job faster/better/easier.
