I wonder... if today there's a computer machine that can equal the balanced tension of a hand built wheel?

I was impressed with the equalized tension on a Raleigh I bought a few yrs back.. 26" MTB set that went 1400+ w/o a failure. That break the result of bad roads and somewhat careless usage... RR tracks and the surprise thump of potholes time to time. I do think that break was the product of low cost/high volume/cheep spokes.
