   powershell should be able to return a timestamp for use in naming files, too...   
      
   what you describe for linux is a method i use, too... once i create the   
   archive, i scp it to another machine or three... at least one is offsite...   
      
   interestingly enough, archiving and then backing up to a media is how many   
   winwhatever backup solutions work... or they do an rsync-type backup where they   
    move only the new and/or changed files... the question is how   
   automated do you want it and how much work are you willing to do to achieve   
   this operation ;)
