i chose crashplan over mozy, after reading some bad mozy reviews (http://wonko.com/post/it_turns_out_mozy_isnt_so_hot_after_al... for instance) . I have the family plan and uploaded 200gb so far, their upload speeds are pretty good.
The only feature I'm still waiting for, is so you can specify different backup sets to archive to your local HD and to their online sevice, but that feature should be realeased with their next update. Other than that I love crashplan, especially the eature that you cannot disable it for longer than 24 hours.
You can also seed your initial backup, that way you don't have long upload times.
If i didn't have the three year warranty i could have thrown mine away:
1. the NVIDIA chip died > screen goes black: known issuse: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
basically if you have one of those macbooks, it will most likely die sooner or later, if it dies within the first three years you're lucky.
2. the trackpad stops working > known issue: the topcase needs to be replaced.
3. cd drive stopped working... well.
bad quality basically. but i would probably buy one again, because there are no slim pc-notebooks.
