Rsync is also available for windows: http://rsync.samba.org/download.html So it should also be possible to backup your windows machines. Im backing up about 20 gentoo servers via rsync today. Since its only used in our datacenter where only gentoo runs I have no experience in using rsync on windows but it looks possible.
