Interesting that you say that. When I’m involved in govt specs for anything other than trivial desktop machine stuff, I specify some Unix variant, or even Apple. Microsoft products are strictly forbidden for exactly what you joked about. No one in their right mind trusts that company for anything approaching quality.

“Nothing like the Blue Screen of Death on the instrument panels.”

Funny, that’s what the AF pilots sitting in the team chairs call it when they tell the Predator to fire the missile.

“Say goodbye Ahab, here comes the Blue Screen of Death”.
