It makes me wonder how many patients have had to wait on care or didn't
get
proper care because of an IT screwup related to
Windows. I have to say
just
_seeing_ Windows on machines in the ER made me livid.
I found it
breathtaking
they were that caviler about getting people checked
in, keeping records
straight, etc... I guess I shouldn't have visited the sausage factory, so
to
speak...
Then again, folks in hospitals probably should be more
concerned with
patients
than with their IT tools. Ugh. Still. Windows? I'd
have felt better about
paper
forms. At least they don't blue screen.
I can't remember getting a blue screen on Windows/7. I used to run a 200
server windows infrastructure.
It all down to how you manage it. Our Linux appliances were the most
unreliable servers BECAUSE we did not know
How to manage them.
