But if you've got 10,000 Windows machines, think of the labor it saves!

I'd love to see (but never will) some big corporation's cost/benefit
analysis of the Crowdstrike mess -- how much did they save by not
staging rollout of security patches, how much did they lose from the
disaster.

I also wonder how CrowdStrike's automated QA didn't detect this before
the realease.  I mean "apply patch, 100% BSOD" ought to have been
noticed!
