I recall some joke about if cars were powered by Microsoft...

Was the punchline like: Close all the windows, restart it and proceed!


I agree with WillySTS, the dash and Nav screen are superior.

I also agree with MacMuse to a large extent. In Information Technology, hardware and software choices are becoming independent. (After 40 years in the industry, I am seeing true hardware/operating system/software independence from desktop to enterprise systems.)

If I could cost effectively use a particular model's inbuilt navigation display with a large number of vendor's systems, that car would be much more attractive.
