"“Back in 2008, a Russian cosmonaut managed to take a laptop to the ISS
that spread the W32.Gammima.AG
worm<http://www.redorbit.com/news/space/1535192/computer_virus_reaches_international_space_station/>
to
all the other laptops aboard the station. Using Linux should make that
impossible,” Condliffe said. “The only hitch might be switching all the
current, Windows-based software – for everything from viewing stock
inventory to carrying out experiments – to Linux. We just hope they don’t
use WINE.”"
