    My personal photos. Always the first thing to be backed up and always the first thing to save in a disaster. Either I can use the time-capsule as a safe backup and come back to it …

    I agree. Balance is key here. A bit of DRY to keep things tidy and a bit of copy/paste to get things moving and working as quick as possible. The company I work for has been very m…
