Another thing that needs to be remembered with the newer more computerized machines is that many times the problems, turn out to be operator error. As users, often times we jump in and start driving, but we don't learn the "new rules" around the "new technologies". Some people will never learn those new rules, but surprisingly stumble onto it all correctly and never have problems.
No, I am not saying there are not machine problems ...... but that we all need to remember that it is not always the machine's fault!
