and as had been pointed out by a number of people, there is no solid
evidence that make it clear that the reboots where caused by the out of
range sensor.

It doesn't matter what caused the reboots, because only defective
software reboots in the first place.

Even it the G1000 is a bad design/system, it's still no reason
to say that we must stay with steam gauges.

True. But a truly safe software system would be so expensive that
nobody could afford it--which means in effect that we should stay with
real instruments for the time being.

Most people designing and writing software today have absolutely no
clue when it comes to safety-of-life issues. What worries me is that
systems like this are being "certified." Apparently certification
means very little when it comes to software.
