I thought it was funny the whole "start your photocopiers" thing came right before he announces the new backup system - which seems remarkably similar to XPs 'system restore' . It automatically tracks changes in your setup , what you installed etc. then you look at a 'timeline' or on XP a calendar , and pick what day you want to roll-back to. well 'roll back' is what it's called on xp, I guess it will be called something else now steve has invented it.
