I once voiced about changing over to windows based OS from Linux on one of our instruments and the Purdue group looked at me like I had 3 heads and said why move from a stable platform to an unstable MS platform?
For anyone who can think, there are better options. Rich Parker Greenfield NH Kr2s As far as a stable platform I can say that once I changed from MS to Linux I have never had a computer crash related to the OS period. Linux is rock solid without the use of any added virus protection period. It would be great to see a system built for a glass panel for the KR or any home built out there using a Linux base program. With the FAA budget approval there is a mandate ( if I am not mistaken ) to go GPS based traffic control which will push this type of technology into the main stream for all aviation. The next few years will be interesting in it's development.
