yea, I'm agreeing, they like to say you can backup your full computer to the cloud, but i just don't think it will do nearly as good of a job as SD. At the very least I will back up the Critical user data to the cloud nightly, such as iCal, AddressBook, bookmarks, etc.
realistically, I have an SD snapshot saved on 3 local hard drives and on the cloud of my system at a clean point. I can always worst case restore to that, then just install a few apps, pull in the critical user data and I'm off with a clean system.
As far as a full nightly backup, for now I'll have SD full nightly backups at least on two other disks(one of them raided), so that should be pretty darn safe. The only reason to go to the cloud is in case my house burns down while I happen to be in the backyard with my macbookpro (the cloud backup wouldn't be much use to me if the macbookpro burned down with the house).
hehe.
