Lemon Law

Lemon Law

When lemon is mentioned do you think sour or is your image sweet. The lemon is a beautiful fruit with the distinctive color of yellow. In the old days of television we would use the lemon to color balance our RCA cameras that were about half the size of a Volkswagen car. If you could get the yellow correct then about 89% of the other colors would be correct. Of course you could use a color chart. We never had one when we needed it. So sometimes the color on your TV screen would be the cause of your TV station and not your TV.

Some where along the way lemon got associated with cars that had major defects and the car dealer and the manufactures would do nothing to repair or replace the defective vehicle. Consumers complained to their state officials and when nothing was done (Let's be fair some states did help the consumer), the consumer took the issue to the federal government. Over time some things got change and some laws where passed (Federal: Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act) .

Now we are in a different time and still these defective products continue to affect our lives. Sitting right in front of you as you read this material is the biggest lemon ever produced. Can you guess what it is. No, it is not you. Your perfect. Look again. What do you see. No it is not your computer. Think. Ok, let me help. First clue: if you have an apple you don't have a lemon. If you have UNIX or LINIX you do not have a lemon. Need any more clues. That's right, it's that terrible program that is running your computer and a large portion of the worlds computers.

Why can't we have a software lemon law that has some teeth. Why shouldn't the company that produced this lemon be required to replace your computer every time your computer crashes. The reason is that no one has gotten killed because of computer software. This may not be provable but computer software runs our world. The truth is we need to gather more information on this aspect of computer software before it can be "committeed" to death in Congress.

So what to do about lemons? Most say add sugar and make lemonade. I say buy an apple and let the lemon rot. It really is sad to have to associate such a beautiful item, the lemon with such a terrible product. Maybe you can suggest some other name that would give a better description.
