this from "New CTS is the Cadillac of luxury sedans", a Cadilac
review:

"But in its wisdom Alpine, the infotainment system’s manufacturer, has
relied on Microsoft for the device’s operating system, and anyone who
uses a Windows computer can guess what is coming next. The display
periodically froze on the first song I played, declining to show any
more songs, though it did actually play them. Sometimes it didn’t
recognize my iPod, and at other times it restarted on a static-y AM
radio band when I’d been enjoying digital XM satellite radio before
shutting the car off. All of these problems are known bugs, fixable by
a visit to the dealer for a software patch, Cadillac reports. Sigh."

why is no one surprised?
Then there's this, in the same week:

Attaboy Microsoft - keep up the good work.
At least you continue to live up to everyone's expectations.
