The Blue Windscreen of Death

I guess I won't be buying a new Ford vehicle any time soon, if ever. From ZDNet:

Ford Motor plans to unveil a deal with Microsoft in January that will put the software company's technology into some of the automaker's cars, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday, citing people familiar with the matter.

The system, to be called Sync, includes a hands-free Bluetooth wireless system and an in-vehicle operating system that eventually will be an option for the entire Ford brand lineup, the Journal said.

Especially if it ever becomes standard!
