Machines are down.

more like humans have gone stupid. Why does the outage only affect Microsoft based PC? time to switch to Mac OS. Bill Gate has way too much power.

It wasn't Microsoft but cloudstrike which made an update that only affected Microsoft os. Microsoft instead of just killing the cloud strike accessing routine gave the blue screen. This was fixed rather quickly but anyone using cloud strike data was still unable.

Already happened. About a month ago Ransome ware attack on program used by auto related companies shut down over 1500 dealerships for a week or so. Dealers lost knowledge of appointments and couldn't order parts. Even body shops that wanted OEM parts could not order. Some dealers handled show ups and walk-ins for stuff they had in inventory. Sales staff couldn't close sales except a few. I just got a call for an update that I think was already done but will schedule for it anyway. Things were shut down for about two weeks or so.

This must have happened to my dealer, a couple months ago I tried to schedule all the software recalls and the dealer I bought the truck from and had at least 8 services done previously now had no record of me and just told me they have been having issues with their new computer system.
