It is certainly true that NML might be choking on
legitimately bogus monitor data.
Actually, we?re talking about the other way around ? the monitor is choking on, maybe
legitimate maybe bogus (nobody knows at this point), data from NML.
However, one hesitates to observe that signaling
incorrect input by crashing is a misfeature...
No, one doesn?t hesitate in my universe? Especially when we?re talking about crashing a
timesharing operating system with maybe 100 users logged in, most of whom are students
frantically trying to get their homework finished before class starts in ten minutes :)
