When i think production machine, I think of my pc, as I produce code, if I
got a problem and I suspected that it was due to installing beta software
then I understand that I have to rebuild from scratch, which I am getting
good at as I have a base build as a ghost image with all my settings ect.

The person from MS was really talking about running in on a dev box.
