Does it work with Linux? All docs that I read talk only about Windows and Mac.
That said, as others have mentioned, b2's value differentiator is in cold storage. For us, it's largely insurance against failure of our other backup modalities. If you are pulling a lot of data back on a regular basis, the pricepoint is much more in line with the top tier providers.
Note that I for now tend to mirror data between servers/vps' I control/rent, so I haven't really used b2 in anger.
