And the comments were good too... Talk about piracy and copyright
holding.
Thanks for the link.

Here is a horror story from Pixar about ToyStory 2. Worth sharing with
your students      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EL_g0tyaIeE [1]

 PS: Don't laugh. That backup in the kitchen may be just what your
organisation needs.

 Thanks Mark, that is very interesting esp the different way data is
stored/replaced on SSD devices compared to old HDD platters.

I was going to comment that Mr Honan must be feeling rather foolish as
a technical expert for not having all this critical data backed up.
Then I read the linked story and saw that he DID have complete
multiple backups - all on Apple technology and linked via Apple's
smart services. So ironically the automatic synching and management
techniques designed to PROTECTS one's data ended up being the very way
that all his data was wiped from all his devices.

I guess one message is that backups need to be not only on different
media and in different locations, but also logically separated (that
is, not linked by synching/one-point management technologies). Until
recently, that aspect probably wasn't an issue for most users.

A $79 hard drive in the kitchen drawer might still need to be be part
of the home backup plan even with iCloud and similar services...

 An interesting article on how professionals recover lost data from
HDD and SSD - might be handy leading into U4O2
