I don't get it.
I regularly re-image my hard drive. I don't do this to remove evidence of activity, but because Mirosoft Windows seems to get cluttered with all sort of junk and crap the longer it runs. I even keep a logbook of every program I install and when I do a reimage. Sometimes a system restore works. Other times, I've had to format and then do a system restore.
Bottom line is that there is a legitimate reason for doing restore, especially with a operating system like Microsoft. Does this mean I'm automatically guilty of a crime -- because there's no evidence?
There's no such thing as a Caltech cannon. There's an object called the Fleming cannon, but, at least while I attended the school, six out of the other seven houses would have been happy to help vandalize it.
My first computer was a TRS-80 Model I with the 16K expansion kit. However, the first computer I was ever paid to program on was the Wang 2200 MVP system with Wang Basic. The machine just flew. The BASIC interpreter wasn't quite as flexible as the Level 2 BASIC on the Radio Shack box, but it did have variables from A0..Z9. The coolest feature, however, was the list command that could automatically format the output, indenting loops, highlighting comments. In fact, I think that's why I still preface most comments with 3 asterisks.
I was 14 when I programmed a set of Coordinate Geometry subroutines for a engineering firm on the box. Also learned about sort routines (although I eventually gave up trying to implement recursive algorithm in BASIC). It even had removable disk platters, about 16 inches across, that could hold up to 5 Megabytes! Whoo!
Gig's Gig's Gig's. 5M, 20M, 100M, 250M, 1G, 2G, who cares. One of my email addresses has 200, count it, 200 G's of space! That's way more than any of those competitors. They're never going to catch up. Of course, it's an invitation only system with just one user, and no, invitations are currently closed.
It's easy to provide lots of free space when you can limit the number of users
Since a proper scientific experiment requires that the output or interpretation be free from any bias, I assume the researcheres were neither male nor female.
