In recent years, they've gotten better, but it was not uncommon for

The computer would be flawless for three or four years and then the
BIOS went wonky. In retrospect, I question if the CR2032 battery may
have been the causation of the chip failure.
Yup, been there, done that, but all so very long ago.
Not really a chip failure, it just lost its mind. :-) New battery, reload BIOS, and all was well again. I don't know
how they do it now, but that doesn't happen anymore.
