Good job they aren't giving them out to friends then. I was lucky - because I've run from LiveCD often, I thought it was taking much too long to start the live demo, and cancelled. Then I got the message saying that the install hadn't finished! I've sent texts and emails to those who I have given a copy to - just glad I didn't give any out at the demo day. Yes, people should have backups - but that doesn't mean we can wipe their hard drives for them!
