Yeah. And once I got past the shock, reading about a child who was marked by the realization that *nothing* was keeping terrible things from happening to him or his loved ones appealed to me. It feels like something that most people come to grips with and are changed by, but most stories tone down or selectively edit out.
Someday, I'll probably double-check that it always does what I tell it to. My impression, from dealing with older computers, is that they actually lost data less often. But I could be wrong about that.
