Does anyone has a feeling that we are becoming addicted to sofware.You will say:So what!It is just new way to live.And i say OK but...what happends when we stop beeing able to control addiction?What when someone else start to control what we really need.I am not talking about shoping addiction or something like that, i am talking about NEED!!!
Let say you have artificial livre that is controled by certain software on small module or chip and one day your software vendor release new version that supports heavy metals filtering for your livre.Let say you MUST by new version because your chip in your digestive system is not supported by out of date version.OK!You buy new version.
Tomorow your software vendor release new version of digestive system software that is not supported by your out of date womb chip and your medical advisor server on internet 'cause of course they updated MAS server!
Who controls tempo?!Who controls compatibility?Who controls price?You don't want to buy new release?OK then die in two months and prepare money for digital decomposition 'cause by the law your braindata will be decomposed to central server for further analyzes of software effects on your mind and bodie.Ok! I see your still live dady has 97% of chances to get cancer.Well he need some software, right?
Piece of cake, 15000$ and you will be brand new.Of course
ther will be 3999% upgrade in 2 months wich is unavoidable
cause we are also upgrading our MAS server to ver.2.4.7...

Think about it!

Of cours it ticks you off.Who wants to accept playing games in wich he play fool that pays? And we all do.We look at them,give them money and laugh to ourself.What else we could do.When i was kid i thought that it's allways easy to get what you really need from system, now i know that it is hardest think to get and what you get easiest is what you dont need at ALL(Hi, my name is Brendon and i will show you how incredible is this magic frying-pane,...Buaaaa,stink away Brendolina) !And guess what, you pay in both cases.
Pale is right about what he sad.If medical software companies screws us with their malfunctioning products then are lawyers will be sharpening their knives.But then what?
We will spend all money on lawyers?Few of people will get huge compensations and the rest wil s..k.Then you will have
one man(dumb and rich)in prison and new company that guarantie light in the tunnel, and one faaaaat S.O.B still growing an growing...
Sorry for sabotagggging every try to escape from the fact that we are little puppets, so enjoy in parody!!! Sleew

All I know is that I want my organ chips running Linux! MS organ operating systems would definitely give new meaning to "blue screen of death." (Of course, if Linux went south we might have colon panic as opposed to kernel panic.)

hmmm.... and which insurance company do you think would start covering the hardware and software and which upgrades do you think they would consider "cosmetic" vs. which they would approve of? ;-) BeckahC

And if you thought your accounting server was mission-critical and worthy of some serious fault tolerance, how about various internal organs? And how is it that we have only one heart, brain, and spine, but two eyes, ears, and kidneys?

Anyway, clustering is really the only way to go, IMHO. Hey, my brain stopped, I'm going to push the load over to yours till I can reboot... :)
