Its worse than that Skip -- I imagine many would rank Apple's time
machine greater than venti just because it puts a pretty GUI on top of
crap methodology versus doing something clever under the hood.  You
can't be a success unless you have an animated 3D GUI consuming most
of your CPU resources and expending all sorts of power.  We should
have spent the last 20 years working on movie-OS versus actually
trying to do systems research.
