Reliability. Purpose-built hardware switches don't crash, ever.

  Tell that to a roadie. Hardware fails all the time.

    Old Steven king book. On a group traveling to a rain forest. They gave all the equipment to a pack of monkeys for the night. Anything still working in the morning was certified as reliable.

      I may be wrong (its been a long time since I read it, and it may be just something that fits really well thematically with the book but wasn’t actually in it), but I think that was Michael Crichton’s Congo, not a Steven King book.

      The original chaos monkeys?
