Frank, has it occurred to you that it is a disadvantage when you have
to have experts around just to keep your system running?  Stable means
stable.  You do not have to have a mechanic on your payroll to keep
your automobile running.  You do not need an electrical engineer on
your payroll to keep your stereo and TV working.  Computers are sold
to the general public at Sears and Wal-Mart.  If they are appliances,
then they should be as stable as appliances.  If not, they shouldn't
be sold as such.
