 1. My home directory (school work, mail, public_html, etc.)
         - My GnuPG pub/priv keys
         - .fluxbox/keys
         - .vimrc, .muttrc, .procmailrc
         - .bashrc, .bash_profile /etc/bash.bashrc (debian)
         - .Xdefaults (and/or .Xresources)
 2. Scripts I've written (/usr/local/bin, ~/bin, /etc/acpi, etc.)
 3. wlan configuration files (think SSIDs and WEP keys).
 4. Budget database.
 5. Ripped CDs music files.
 6. Saved game files (think zsnes emulator)
 7. Output of lspci and lsmod.
 8. /proc/kcore                (HA HA HA HA HA, Just kidding!!)

By the way, I am now going to save this e-mail in a very special place,
so when I need to redo my computer, I will be ready :)
