Haha, Windows CE _can_ actually be extremely stable. We've written and run everything from courier tracking systems to yacht race autopilots on it.
I've always thought that seeing "GPF in brakes.exe" would be a scary message on a blue background....
Didnt toyota have something very similar to that a while back!I've always thought that seeing "GPF in brakes.exe" would be a scary message on a blue background....

Oh and first crash - http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/3864375/...
I went over to Mclaren in Knutsford today to have a look at the MP12 for the first time. The car is simply stunning and no pictures in the world (ok maybe you GFWilliams) can show off how good it is and what presence it holds in the metal. It was in a metallic white with silver wheels and a black and tan interior, perfection and pretty much the exact car I will order one day! The girl who worked there was very friendly and happy for me to stay as long as I wanted, thumbs up!
By contrast I called at the new Ferrari dealer in Wilmslow and IMO the 458 is no where near as nice to look at.

Interesting viewpoint. And totally the opposite of mine FWIW. The first time I saw the McLaren I walked right past it without even noticing it. I have seen several since (including following one on the road) and whilst it looks okay it is really quite bland. Still at least that is made up for by the delight of wondering what bit will fail next.By contrast I called at the new Ferrari dealer in Wilmslow and IMO the 458 is no where near as nice to look at.

Mmm, Personally think the Mac in the metal and the right colour looks great but they both do.Jonathan
Enjoying McLaren qualty issues from the Ferrari camp is very pot,kettle, black.
On the whole the oily bits on ferraris are solid but bits falling off, electrical gremlins and rather shoddy build is a "part of the experience" if you own one it seems.
This car is totally epic! There have been a few software related issues and a load of trash written by journos
Or by reviewers who's interest is served by knocking the car! By summer the software glitches will be history and people will be falling over themselves to buy the best car that I have driven AND owned
Mclaren do not deal in Lemons! What happened in Singapore last Sunday?
I have taken the car on track and it is totally mind blowing
