A company I worked for some time ago hired a consultant to oversee their data processing practices. He approaced two of us and sworn to secrecy the 3 of us went in on a weekend and backed up every PC in the house, then we wiped the disks.

THAT tought the (unfortunately just the majority of) users to do regular backups.


Did you make a backup of the backup before you wiped the PCs? I would never intentionally nuke a computer with only one backup.
