Re: L380 Yoga - Goldylocks MacBook Pro with ugly buttons
That keyboard looks like a MacBook keyboard with a cl1t nobody uses ...
I for one won't touch anything without a cl1t.

Recently I went so far as seeing if you could put a Latitude or Precision keyboard (with pointer stick) in a Alienware 17. You can't.
Currently I use a Precision M6800. The standard pointer tip sucks but 99p later on ebay I had the cat's tongue sandpaper type. In blue of course.
So when I come to replace it, as you say, I am stuck with something from the Lenovo Thinkpad or Dell Precision/Latitude range. Which is what I have been using (one or the other) since about 1998.
I did once have a corporate Toshiba (with pointer stick) in about 2000. It was crap.
My money is still on the ESB availability failing and then trouble afterwards resyncing all the systems. Even in the article it says:
"However, within the comments of the BA chief executive there is one telling statement:
Tens of millions of messages every day that are shared across 200 systems across the BA network
and it actually affected all of those systems across the network."
Maybe if BA were running active:active they have just found out a single point of failure that they did not notice before in the design.
For example maybe taking out the power completely knackered the Enterprise Service Bus (or access to it). If messages could not get to the backup then it fits in with what Cruz said about a power supply issue causing a network problem that meant messaging failed between all the systems.
The backup data centre might have just been twiddling it's thumbs.
