Microsoft jolts awake, remembers it still makes Office for Mac

Anyone who needs to do version tracking

Oh really? On a Mac, versioning became part of the OS itself since Lion. Pages as well as LibreOffice have a "File - Versions" menu entry that allows you to browse previous versions of the document which lands you in a sort of Time Machine - alike browser which allows you to restore previous versions.

The beauty of this system is that it's totally transparent - many people don't even know it exists and still do the "Save As" approach. What I don't know is how you can clean this out. I know it only holds deltas, but it's still stuff I'd like to clean up later.
