Computer Glitch throws wrench into New Year’s show.

Yes - Windows strikes again. Well, sloppy preparation and Windows. You’d think anyone that’s ever worked with a PC before would know that you have to test, test, test and test some more if you’re running your project on Windows.

Let’s see - so far we’ve seen the following things brought to crashing halt by crappy Windows software:

• Atomic power plants (nothing to worry about there!)
• Conventional power plants (just another day!)
• Factories (long lunch kids!)
• Any number of businesses (“the Exchange server is down again…” - sound familiar?)
• Airlines (so what, takes forever to fly anywhere anyway)
• Space stations (don’t worry - it will take a year to fall!)
• Fireworks shows

Where do you want to go today? I’d like to suggest the local Apple Store.
