#thirdworldproblems:
A server is shutdown due to a HW failure and stops the financial services of the most used bank in a small country... No redundancy exists and no replacement part is available due to the fact that the server's line is out of production for 10+ years, so the part is scarce in most countries outside the US.
Desperate customer decides to install hardware from their own reserve stock... That HW is incompatible and the customer didn't know...
