It's fair to say our forums weren't exactly quaking in fear at the prospect, either.

"I am waiting for there to be reports of satellite guided bombs going astray (okay more than usual going astray)," says Amnesia10, who forgets that bombs don't go astray so much as hit "non-priority targets".

puma25uk thought he saw a bright side, though: "I don't think the system will be allowed to fail completely next year. Imagine the horror stories of pilots who've lost their basic navigation skills to the GPS-guided software on their planes. On the other hand, terrorists will get lost on the way to their target."

Hopefully ending up at Aunty Hilda's. Well, we can only hope. See you all next week... assuming we can still find our way to the office.
