With 2GB of storage for free and a nice simple client to use, Mozy (http://mozy.com/) has a very nice option for backing up data on your home workstation. Simply install the client, choose what to backup (it provides some hints and tips about this), choose network and performance options, and let it run.
To do a restore, simply visit their website, choose what you want to restore, and they can either package it up into a Zipfile for you (which you can download over an SSL-enabled website) or you can pay a few bucks to have them burn it on DVD and ship it to you.
For a few dollars ($4.95/month) you can get unlimited backup storage for a home PC. Quite a nice deal.
I've used this service for a while now, and it's worked very nicely for my home backup needs - it gets the backup done, and keeps the backed up data offsite. (I used to use a DLT to backup my data at home, but it was such a pain getting it down to a secured location like a bank box)
