All,
One of the new features of 11.3 is SpiderOak integration:
WTF? Who gets the $10? Is this Novell or are we advertising for some 3rd party money grubber?
$10 / 100 GB per month (after the first free 2GB) is SpiderOak's list price. I don't know if openSUSE gets a portion of that or not. (Is there a openSUSE foundation with its own finances yet? I believe that was in process a while ago.) fyi: Carbonite is roughly $4/machine per month plus $0.50/GB per month. So if you have 2 GB or less, SpiderOak is cheaper at free. For 2 GB to 12 GB on one machine Carbonite is cheaper since they have more granular pricing. But beyond that, SpiderOak wins. And if you have several hundred GB, $10/100GB is about the cheapest I've seen around. (I happened to do a survey about a year ago. I have about 500 GB in offsite backup I use. I did not come across SpiderOak at that time, so I'm not using it for that data at this point.)
