define "break down"....
PC World found that roughly 22 percent of computers break down every year -- compared to 9 percent of VCRs, 7 percent of big-screen TVs, 7 percent of clothes dryers and 8 percent of refrigerators.
People that have no idea how to operate a computer probaby have a lot to do with this. Give a computer to the average person and in a month take a look at how much shareware garbage has been installed and uninstalled, system files deleted, etc. Now maybe there's a program in the startup menu that doesn't exist, and an error message is generated at bootup. Is this a break down? Maybe, maybe not.
As we continue the clueless user starts poking around, not knowing what they're doing, but doing it anyway. "oh here's regedit.exe, let's see if that'll fix it....hmm now it won't boot....Damn fscking Dell!"
Hemos said he hasn't had nearly as many problems as the article states...neither have I. The reason probably has to do with the user. We know what we're doing, many people do not.
