Crashplan looks pretty cool.  I'm trying it out now under Linux.  It was
a bit confusing in some small areas, like selecting the destination.  I
want to write out to an external USB hard drive, and I found I had to
run it with sudo to do that.

If it works well under Linux I'll try it on Windows.

Thanks!
