According to Bill Gates that's the car itself. Much like the IBUZ 
discussions. The internal combustion engine is primitive technology, 
says Gates. Compared to computer technology. I wish I still had the 
text of a speech made by a GM exec. responding to Gates' comment.

"Would you buy a car that crashed twice a day?"

Would you buy a car where you often had to reinstall the engine for 
no apparent reason?"

Those are two I remember.
