Thanks for the details.
Doesn't instill consumer confidence in buying new expensive electronics!

D Yuniskis did a nice job but only touched on a few things that can go
wrong. In any case, my thanks to him for taking the time to explain the
issues.

Consumers are becoming more clueless as software takes over their lives.
This is a problem that is becoming more serious. If the doctors and nurses
and technicians in a modern operating room get confused or misled by
software glitches, it could be really, really serious. Has already
happened.
