I have a relative that works for PG&E in management. Doesn't look too promising. Too far behind, don't know which or what is embedded, and too many computers to be tested just to see which and how many computers are suspectible to glitches! They are spending millions on correcting the billing aspect of it, and the list goes on. Just don't count on having electricity 24-hours a day.
