[ale] CrashPlan Home, cancelled

[Kyle Brieden]

BackBlaze is not being subtle about their willingness to take on all the 
people flocking away from CrashPlan, but that doesn't help us.  I think 
BackBlaze doesn't have a native client for Linux, though.  That being 
said, some people were suggesting standing up a Windows VM/Host to 
collect backups from all your devices and then push up to BackBlaze.  
That comes with some extra overhead on your own part for restores, but 
it does have the added benefit of backing up your whole network while 
only having to pay backblaze for a single machine.
