I'd recommend buying a good CD burner and then going with Mondo. Mondo is a backup program that not only archives your data to CD, but it
also allows you to make the CDs bootable, and it allows you to restore your *entire* system with one command that you type at bootup. It is
definitely worth checking out, it's what I'm going to be using with the server at my dad's law office.
