gmc intel link didn't boot - screen blank

When I purchased the truck one of the selling points was the onboard computers and how well they work for you. However, it seems that on this rainy morning the GMC Intellink was unable to boot up, leaving the screen blank. This is concerning for 2 reasons; the first is that it makes me feel like whoever developed the firmware made the boot up sequence reliant upon some event (for example, connecting with On-Start), and because of the clouds it couldn't complete the sequence. The other reason this is a concern is that at time of purchase I opted not to get the extended warranty for the screen, so I'm feeling like the later years of ownership with this vehicle is going to cost me a fortune.

I still enjoy driving my truck, but when the basic functionality (like the radio) doesn't work, then its a frustration. I feel that I paid extra for the SLT model, but am not feeling comfortable about what will be working based on the weather, traffic patterns, or even the time of day.
