Ask those who designed it.
We keep seeing these Windows embedded systems barfing (ATMs, Gas Pumps,
Voting Stations, etc.), but where are the photos of Linux embedded
systems going tits-up? It must happen, Shirley, since a healthy
proportion of all ATMs are Linux powered, as are a healthy proportion of
many other embedded systems.
So where are these broken embedded Linux systems?
Just one picture.
