This smacks of remote backup which is the new craze everyone is trying
to push at the moment (Even us) "The tin is dead long live the
service".

Interestingly I read (or heard on a podcast) last month that certain
distributions are getting a bad reputation for burning out hard drives
SuSE certainly went through a sticky period for burning out USB
drives.

We must all wait for the bio-genetic film drive that imprints your
data on a semi concious membrane. failing that some sort of storage
device with no moving parts, oh and no software ??

Arch Linux is an independent i686-optimized community distribution for
intermediate and advanced Linux users. Utilising a Rolling Release
System packages are regularly updated and an ISO release is just a
snapshot to the stable packages at that time. So there's no need for a
fresh install the command 'pacman –Syu' upgrades the whole system.
