However, I just backup everything. It is simpler and safer than picking and choosing what to backup.

I do data backups on a regular schedule. It is easier to back up ALL 
user data rather than the data of each application separately.

I do system backups prior to each "build" << installation of new 
programs or versions of programs >>  There is no need in a case like 
mine to do backups of software that has not changed (since last system 
backup). HOWEVER .... if you allow automatic or frequent "upgrades" of 
software (as opposed to infrequent scheduled "builds") you'd probably be 
better off doing a system backup by some regular schedule since for you 
unpredictable when software has changed.
