DNA storing 'lots of' data, now I understand what all the green skinned aliens have been doing with all their abductions in those flying saucers; and, err, probing. :) ;) :)
Fast food, delivered with a drone assist. whats not to like? :)
I'm with starkers, the restore point type feature to un-do the 'patch' needs to be there. It should be user friendly, not a process that requires user to be an 'under the hood' person.
