PLEASE REMEMBER the importance of implementing a good backup routine.  We recommend you rotate diskettes, tapes, zip drives or whatever method you are currently using to backup your system.  The more often you use People's Choice, the more often you should backup.  Also, it is a good practice to archive a backup on a monthly basis.  Diskettes, tapes and zip drives can and do become defective over time.  If you are backing up on a defective system, you will be unable to retrieve important information should your computer crash.  With a good backup, you can have your company up and running in no time.  Without a good backup, you could be looking at days or weeks to re-enter your company's vital financial information.  A functional backup is the cheapest insurance any company will ever obtain.
