Hey Bob--

All my serious work is done now on a MBP, both at home and at work.

Time Machine runs on the Time Capsule at home. I also have an external  
firewire drive at work that is my Time Machine drive there. I just  
switch the designated backup drive depending on where I am. That way  
I've got a full backup at separate locations.

Our office is switching all machines to Mac as replacement cycles come  
around.
