Photoshop enable Multiple undo?

I'm used to applications allowing you to perform multiple undos at once with Ctrl-Z. I've found that at least the default setting in photoshop is only a single undo. How do i change this (im a photoshop newbie)?

"I use photoshop 7 but should be similar in any later versions.

Edit>Preferences>General

Redoc Key - by default is Ctrl+Z (Toggles Undo/Redo)

Change it to Ctrl+Shift+z or something, and change the history states to a nice high value (I have 200).

Press Ok and jobs a good-un!"

"In Photoshop CS3 you go Edit->Keyboard Shortcuts

Here you can change/add keyboard shortcuts to most Photoshop menu items, palette menus and tools.

Simply choose the Edit accordion section and click on the Step Backwards shortcut and click Ctrl-Z.
It might throw a warning as it is will be overwriting the Undo/Redo button, but don't worry about that.

Now you have it set up the way it should be."
