Folks,

Good thing this 'new paradigm' hasn't been embraced by folks making dialysis
machines, pacemakers, etc.

Well, I got a T-Mobile Pocket PC: a cell phone with Windows on it.

Ever so often, it forgets how to do phone things, and I have to
push the stylus in the reset hole to make it be a phone again.

Reminds me of the joke, if Windows OS were in automobiles, you'd have
To occasionally pull over, close all the windows, turn off the engine,
turn on the engine, open the windows, and resume your journey.

Yours truly,
