Story: The top 10 IT disasters of all time
Thanks to all for the ideas
When you try to do a top ten you know you will not fit everything in but thanks for all the suggestions. I kick myself for missing out the Denver baggage mess. That is one computer disaster that can still make me smile years later - it helps that I did not travel through Denver much at the time. It does conjure up a wonderful picture in the mind of all those clever robotics and computers sending baggage to all the wrong places. A bit like British Airways as the moment, and they do it without the help of robots.
We will be thinking of using this useful data in a future piece. Could I Teich please send me more info on the Street Payment System. Thanks.
