What backup systems do you use? [View all]

I like time capsule, automatic, fast, and has multiple levels of prior versions. I don't use it often, but, damn, when needed it is great.
I also back up to an external drive, a large Iomega drive, that holds more than enough I ever need, (I could even use it as an external drive, but no need so far. Between the two I will not be stuck where I was a few years ago, crashed computer, dead in the water, without an oar to piss on. A drop to drink? Without any backup. That was tough.

So what do you use?
External HD?
TimeCapsule?
some cloud based backup system?
DVDs?
Nothing?

PS, if it nothing, you need to change your ways.
