One argument FOR the avidyne system is that it is driven off of garmin 430s so if a screen dies you still have GPS and COMMS but the G1000 has so many redundant systems that a complete failure would be a very rare event.
That must be what I saw in the Matrix then; he specifically mentioned that if he were to lose all power he still had the standby instruments and one of the two GPSs.
