RE: Real World cost from the Hard Fork 2.whatever!
It was Medical Equipment and a small company, they did NOT know there was an easier way to do it. I neglected to tell them, ROFLOL! Our launches always worked the first time, and we had some of the most expensive monitors on the market. Part of the reason was that they worked, all the time!
We saw an ESD problem in Hospitals who cleaned all the time, the standard was no damage at a single 5000 volt hit. My ESD tester would generate a 22000 volt discharge. I tasked my guys, and helped them get there, with surviving the full discharge, in multiple hits. When the hits stopped, I required that the monitor return to the monitor mode.
THAT was hard to get to, but we did it! That was the toughest monitor that money could buy! And we sold them by the thousands!

Excellent! I have worked with a company before who sells/makes shielding equipment for hospitals to block out all EM interference from heart monitors etc. - it's interesting to me to learn how much specialist tech is needed in hospitals just to maintain what looks relatively normal to onlookers.
Sorry, No reply because of no RC. Hospitals require zero mistakes, and make the work hard, but the rewards are large! I had a monitor to stop pressure ulcers in testing. I pulled a Lady off Hospice with the monitor. She healed up, and they moved her off of Hospice.
Socialized medicine killed that project, and half a million people by now.
Thanks for the typos on my web site, I had it proof read too, LOL! Too tired when I wrote it I guess.
