Sorry, Ford, but I never want to see a BSOD in my car.

    Erm... While I understand the sentiment entirely, good luck with that:
    Microsoft is currently working with automakers and suppliers worldwide to put its Connected Car technology into production. It recently added several new car models to its growing customer base using Windows Automotive technology. Drivers and passengers can now experience Microsoft technology in over 60 preinstalled and aftermarket devices from 18 world-class automakers and suppliers including Acura, BMW, Citroën, Clarion Co. Ltd., DaimlerChrysler, Fiat, Subaru, Honda, Hyundai, Mitsubishi, NexTech, Toyota and Volvo.
    Big companies like to do business with other big companies...

    I don't care how many car makers go with it. I'll find a car without any Microsoft technology in it, or I'll start driving vintage cars.
