Well, I don't drive (yet), but when I do, I'll make darn sure there's
nothing in my car that's electronic, other than possibly a (valved/tube)
radio!. As I keep on pointing out to friends "I'll carry a VOM in the boot
(trunk), but I'm not carrying the 'scope and logic analyser as well!"
In fact, I'll stand by my original statement. I don't own a non-classic
computer other than possibly my pocket calculator, which is 6 years old,
and has a Saturn CPU in it.
