A pretty Time Machine

Anil Dash comments on one of OS X Leopard’s new features, Time Machine, which allows users to restore files to a previously saved version. Windows introduced a similar function around 2003, called Volume Shadow Copy, but Dash notes that Apple will get the credit - OS X makes it easy to use, understandable to the average user and, quite frankly, pretty. Microsoft need to wake up and realise that users want ease-of-use and good looks, two things that much of Windows severely lacks.
