[net.misc] hardware reliability

honton (10/07/82)

  A recent controller I've been working on requires failsafe operation.
Backup equipment is supposed to cut in whenever some hardware fails.  The
question is: What hardware will most likely fail?

  I invite everyone in netland to send me their stories of computer
equipment that failed and the reason for failure.

  I'll post some sort of summary if there is enough interest.
