"...it's probably the lack of neglect...", might need a touch of correction. Otherwise, I totally agree with the article.

I asked them if they backed up the server and they did just like the normal windows servers not realizing that they need to back up the database as well. Two days later, the accounting system crashed because of lack of disk space. After that we set up a good back up strategy like backing up the log files every hour, an differential back up of the databases at night and a full back up on saturday.
