Yep - the article is simply WRONG! Better yet - he used 60 minutes as a source of truth? Really?
Turns out the best suspect they have for the Oxygen problem is the suit the guys wear! They are doubling up on the cold-water gear along with the G suit, and the one gets in the others way during High G manuevers. Comes down to a faulty valve in the G suit.

Has nothing to do with Computers. He is an idiot.
Sorry, Steve, but the idiot may be in the mirror.
OBOGS is primarily computer (software) controlled, so it has EVERYTHING to do with computers.
The '60 Minutes' piece included interviews with pilots who had nearly bought farms due to OBOGS and then refused to fly it until fixed.
Right after the piece aired Panetta ordered further restrictions placed on Raptors.
Most of these problems did NOT occur in Alaska, so the heavy vests were not used.
On top of the oxygen starvation problems, most pilots complain of a condition now called "Raptor Cough" which is almost certainly an OBOGS phenomenon.
