We talked about this in the meeting (and rsnapshot is mentioned in the
slides).  My perspective is that the script isn't really much longer
than rsnapshot's config file, and I enjoy the flexibility of being able
to change things easily.  The point isn't which tool to pick but
understanding how you can do a backup to a hard drive using rsync with
hardlinks.

Backups are so simple, but most people just don't do them.
