Well, i have another one related to ISS Some time ago there was an article over at theregister.co.uk showing a picture of an astronaut with a portable behind him. The weirdo's over at the register magnified the screen and there it was c:\> Incredible huh ? First thought it was a hoax but they had a follow up on the story some time later reporting the spaceshuttle that was just launched carried a replacement harddisk for the portable. We might have all been very lucky MIR didn't have any windows systems on board when it came out of orbit.
Did you know that there are Nuclear Battlecruisers (i'm not a soldier, don't know the exact name for this type of ship) running on windows NT ? Scary huh !

A guy who is our sys admin said he read on a sys admin type mailing list that the crew of the International Space Station are having some computer problems just like a lot us down here on earth. It seems that the U.S. provided computers running AIX and Win NT. A Win NT computer is being used as an SMTP server. Apparently the crew are becoming experienced Win NT sys admins because they are having all kinds of problems with the SMTP server. The Russians brought computers running Linux. They seem not to be having SMTP server problems. As I said, I heard this third hand and have no idea if its true or not. It was probably started by a bunch of Linux college geeks, I don't know. Someone from NASA will probably roast me alive... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
