    If only people would decide how they wanted their toast done and not change their minds after one side's been browned.

    ditto americas, ditto australasia

    consolidation line of toasters for consolidating the toast developments in the markets and continents into the global blueprint, again, dev, quality, regression

    then the production line or maintenance line, dev, quality, PRODUCTION which is where consolidations from the global blueprint line are promoted and maintained

    Prod will of course be highly available fail over etc

    of course as a minimum the quality systems in all lines will have to be mirrors of production from the architectural perspective so that any toasting issues which might might stem from prod being a different architectural design to the rest of the development landscape

    now we're farming.

    up the .net

    Milan.
    and since you cannot trust your family members with full access to the toaster settings you will need a few highly skilled contractors to develop family access profiles that differ from each other on each toaster in the .nett toaster landscape

    It is one of the few truly glorious products of the world. Think of how many families it feeds

    and that's only the toaster

    then we'll need to apply support packs to the whole toaster landscape at least twice a year and more if other components in the kitchen have dependencies on the toaster being a higher version

    now we're farming.

SAP's experts would establish each pattern as the "Best Practices" method of toasting that kind of bread. It would take a team of basis and functional contractors about 1 year to configure the toaster in the best manner, and then another 6 months to test it.

    In the meantime, your entire family would need to attend extensive training classes on how to use the new toaster. In order to support end users and consultants, MIT would establish a list-serv for people to post questions and answers regarding toaster set-up and operation. Of course, the online help would randomly pop up in German. But once it was running, you'd get the best toast in the world.
    Untill you tried a different brand of bread, then you'll be back to cursing the ****er
