You really do talk *******s, yes my mechanic cant fix my car at a reasonable price, because his computer wont talk to "my" car, so I am tied to the main dealers outrageous prices, ah yes though they brought a law in so the makers have to allow other garages access to their software, well guess how much they want to sell it, about the price of a fekkin housing estate, guess who pays, answers on a stamp.
Toyota, some muppet thought it was a good idea to put windows 90jive in between the brake pedal and the brake wheel cylinder, human presses brake pedal, windows goes ooer dll error missing colonel bogey and crash, toyota's
shares crying all the way the bank, Nissan's software, or should I say Renault.
As far as the "younger" generation go, they only "think" they need all this crap because they have been brainwashed into it, you only have to listen to the inane conversation, yea but no but yea but no but she said he said while they walk into traffic while on their "oh so necessary" mobiles.
I fitted a really complicated Honeywell progstat years ago for a new nursery, it would do practically everything a zillion times a day, took about a day of reading the instructions to get to grips with it, I asked the lady what she wanted it setting up to, "oh twice day thanks" FFS
You cant make software fool proof as it's written by fools.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools Ro. 1.22
And while were on it, while your writing your "foolproof" software to wipe everyones arse, some spotty autistic adolescent schoolboy is writing a virus that will screw up your wonderful "foolproof" software and cost people a lot of time money and stress and a "non working" appliance, I will stick to Y plans and such thanks, as they tend to be more reliable and you don't need Professor Hawkins to come along in his wheelchair plug his sparky speech generator into your Honeywell Tardis Star trek programmer to get, oooohh magical hot water and heating.

Yes, there are/will be challenges as both consumers and 'professionals' adapt to technology and the benefits it can bring, as highlighted in this thread! - As a great RGI, I assume you educated the Nursery on the effeciency benefits of using the Honeywell stat differently??
