I believe that there has been only one mishap caused by faulty FBW computers and that was with a prototype A320 (or maybe it as an A340) that crashed at an air show in Europe somewhere.

Stories like this get mileage because the dinosaurs in the media are not merely having their lunch eaten by new communications technologies - they are in complete ignorance of them. I seriously doubt that Boeing has left open an opportunity in such an important product. But if it were true - you'd never know from the wire stories on this subject - they are devoid of even whiffs of jargon that would suggest the writer/editor knew what they were writing about. They swallow stories like this (and "black box voting" hysteria) whole, then regurgitate in simpler terms.
