SRG: Everything you say is reasonable and logical, but you are not thinking like a lawyer. The enthusiasm for the MIT1000a is generated on this board because it will "save lives" and "prevent illness" etc. And I agree it will. But there will be cases where batches of food products are shipped out which have pathogens in them because the random samples used to do the tests were taken from "clean" areas of the lot. If someone dies or people get seriously ill from consuming a contaminated portion of the lot, all the "usual suspects" will be dragged into court whether they are guilty or not. The computers, cell phones, and other examples you provide in your post are in a totally different class product from the MIT1000a because they do not have an "implied warranty" that they will "save lives" the way the MIT1000a does. You yourself say that "The MIT 1000a post no risks if used properly". That was same logic of the management of the company that I worked for. In my experience, the court cases found that the developer and seller of the product was at least partially responsible to make sure that the product was "used properly". The action of having M.I.T. certified per the applicable ISO standard will put in place a quality system that would demonstrate management's effort to ensure that the product was "used properly" and generate the documentation of prove it in court when the occasion arises. The cost of doing this would be about 3% of the fantastic profits that this company is expected to generate.
So what is the problem here?
Sorry that I am so paranoid about this. I have said my piece, and will never bring this subject up again.
Good luck to all and have a great 2012.
