A deep dirty dark secret of the computer industry is that application software programmers, "coders", are almost always entirely clueless about computer hardware.
They almost always don't deal with failures correctly in their code when it is hardware problems like faulty RAM.
Intel Row-hammer hack, oh my. The Operating System people, low-level people, didn't catch the mistake either. Think about that. (I'm a published author expert and technical editor on operating systems, IBM OS/2)

In my day, Bill Gates and Commodore couldn't agree on BASIC licensing so we had to use POKE to set hardware registers for sound and pixel graphics, and we didn't have sign wave sound, and we LIKED IT!!
On a Friday night, we would download music like this and be happy, and the power supply on the computer would self-destruct - planned obsolesce logic-bomb built in to fry the computer!
Kids coding in their JavaScript with their fancy Apple computer (California Hippies, the lot) didn't have to deal with American BIG IRON from Texas, that would electrocute you in 1983!
Coders these days don't know what hardware skills are!

"The 99/4A model home computers have been sold in a variety of retail outlets over the past year at suggested retail prices of $450 and $375 with $100 rebate in effect since September 11, 1982."

Spooky, September 11!
Commodore power supply is a planned obsolesce fry-the-whole-computer. Competitor (they really hated each other) in Texas goes with electrocuting end-user / player!
Apple Computers, such hippies with their huge pile of wealth, assets, money, influence.
Steve Jobs learned about Indra in India visiting Gurus
Steve Jobs the California hippy.
What an idealist Steve Jobs was. The ideal of California lead the whole nation with technology and huge money in his hands.
"Steve Job's Wired World", has a ring to it?

Ahh, 1998, downtown Bellevue, Washington. Internet faster than the CPU and hard drive can cope with...

Microsoft wanted to be the "Rupert Murdoch" of media. Elon Musk owns a media empire now, that's exactly what Microsoft wanted in 1996 when I was working in Bellevue, Washington for the sports team owner... board of director.
Microsoft WAS very much concerned with anti-trust, which is why Rupert Muirdoch in the same year went WAY FURTHER on extreme than Bill Gates / Pall Allen wanted to in 1996 when I was analyzing all this ongoings.
