Default Windows updates

Was sitting in a bar in Canberra last night.

Loud bunch next to us discussing the state of IT in the health system.

Apparently they were conducting surgery in the OR and mid way through the procedure, with the guy on the table, all the PC's in the theatre froze for 30 minutes performing...wait for it...Windows updates, with multiple reboots.

In desperation the aneasthesist managed to get the power off the PC that monitor O2 levels etc...but it still did 3 more reboots....the patient was unconscious on the table.

Must admit I get cheesed off when the PC just does its crap and becomes harder and harder to stop all the updates....but this must have been scarey stuff.

Worst i have had is a reboot in the middle of internet banking...
