Qualifiers such as the condition of the brake pads really are a good first step towards a real-world-worthy definition of real time.

And I completely agree that real time is a property of the entire system and its environment, not just of the software. "Hard real time" software doesn't help much unless the rest of the system and the environment are also amenable to hard real time.
