Tom,

When I reinstall OS X I typically like to copy my Users folder. I typically reinstall all of my applications, because it usually doesn't take very long, and by reinstalling I can be certain to have a good install.

That said, for some crazy reason I still choose to waste space backing up /Applications. :)
