Not rocket science

Current day computers are a poor excuse for what they could be primarily due to apathy. The proof is in the totally defective Windoze O/S's that have been forced on consumers thru illegal means. How could you ever expect a computer which is logic based to be reliable when forced to run a defective O/S that has millions of documented defects? Making the hardware more reliable is also possible if hardware makers actually cared and did proper validation.

In reality PC sales like all electronics is about making money, not about delivering reliable computers. The only reason current computers are unreliable is because consumers will buy this crap. Why waste time and money making a proper computer when you can sell crap for windfall profits? Sure better micro code can improve performance and it should be the basis for all computers, but don't expect to see it any time soon for commercial use as it's less profiatble than selling crapware.

This ain't rocket science and has been known for 30+ years.
