I'm curious as to why users would have data on their desktop machines, anyway. Why not redirect to server shares? For instance, we redirect everyone's My Documents folder, and setup the default save directories for Office, to the users' home directories on our file server. Then we back up those folders. A lot easier than trying to have a backup software access 1000+ separate machines each night.
