You guys have had much better luck with System Restore than I have. Of course, when I've used it it hasn't been pre-meditated (like the driver example), it was "oops, my god, how can I fix /this/?!?!"...
It has worked a few time, I won't knock that, but, man, my system never felt the same after. I think the best example of it is for the drivers, whatnot. Set a point manually, and then do your stuff, and then either restore or not. It really doesn't handle "take me two weeks back" "ok, now take me 4 weeks back" "ok, now two forward" like I wish it did. Not exactly it's fault, more the way WIndows works. All exp. is with XP, haven't tried it on Vista. Luckily, OS X doesn't use a Registry, so there's less need for a tool of the System Restore kind... "normal" backups work pretty good...
