I was thinking that we should stress the _personal_ part of personal 
software.  With Cuis, it is harder to lose your work.

Images are portable.

Cuis watches what you do.  ChangeSets record and can be played back to 
just before that stupid code hack that crashed/hung the image.

Git usage and packages let one compose features -- and satisfy 
requirements to be sure everything needed is supplied.  No "library 
hell" looking to satisfy..

One can browse (package) code without loading it and see the changes.

Browsing method versions lets one play and back-off (revert).

.. so the IDE supports us.

Could also add some meta-programming (senders, methods containing, 
classes containing, ..) stuff from Help->Useful Expressions (& Terse 
Guide->Custom Browsers) ..
