Yet another sad lesson in backups. As they've now learnt, you need offsite backups. It's not just burglary. What if the building burnt down? What if there was a simultaneous hardware failure?

You gotta have important code somewhere else, so if one day you turn up and the entire building is a charred, smouldering shell, you're still OK. I back up important code to Dropbox, and if your content is over 2GB, you can't afford not to pay a little for the 50GB or 100GB plans.
