You could also get a free 2GB Dropbox account, put all your current project
files in there, then move them to an external drive when the project's over.
They save every version of your files for (I think) 30 days so it's like a
poor man's version control.

Also, I haven't used the feature yet but the shared hosting plan I use for
my personal website includes svn and git repository hosting. If you have
similar you wouldn't have to set up your own server and client to use them.

Later,
Joe
