OH MAN, the F-22 with NT, oh jeez...Hey I love NT, but the amount of times I
have had to reboot a machine, I couldn't imagine that in an F-22.

Dick.....
|| Thanks for chiming in!
On number one, those Unisys workstations were standardized over all of
the
services since GSA singed a VERY large contract for them. We had them all
over
the place in the USAF as well.
|| Well..ok...but I never saw any in the Navy. But I was in what is now
called
SPAWAR...maybe they didn't dig those GSA contracts. The ones you and I saw
where
the SW-II. Since then, they've got SW-III in. I wonder if they still call
them
"snotboxes" since they kinda looked like a tissue box....
On the second point, your dead right. I do not remember the ship
involved,
but it turned out to have been a SQL*Server bug that gpf'd the OS. The
totality
of the problem was that the ship's radar, navigation, weapons control, and
digital electronic control system were all knocked out at the same time.
Can
you say "OOPS!!". The ship returned to port under manual control without
incident. Seems someone at the Navy was a little old fashioned in their
thinking.
|| Yea....about five years ago? SS6.0 maybe?
BTW: My source of info here is the Air Force News Agency's daily news
letter. They had a good laugh I'm sure since I understand that the F-22 was
suppose to be NT driven as well initially.
|| <brace for bad, military procurement pun> Don't you mean they had a good
"AN-UYK" over it?
Better ideas I do believe have prevailed.
|| I can't imagine making anything mission critical either under vanilla,
dos, unix, or nt. VMS maybe....
