It's shameful that they would trust people's lives to a computer
system that had to be "reset every thirty days" just to keep from
crashing.



Everyone seems fixated on the Microsoft portion of this problem,
but so far no one has mentioned the words that have appeared in
every article I've read about the incident: "The backup system
also failed." What is the backup system, and WHY did it fail?


"The SUV rolled over due to failure of the tires. The airbag
also failed."
