The last time I looked, the USG was busy converting over to Windows.
Everyone in the government loves windwoes because gates thinks like they
do. Several years ago there was a wonderful story about the Navy's
attempts to ditch the UNIX servers that run their destroyers, and convert
them over to NT4.0 It has been a while, but on at least two occasions, one
of our billion$$ destroyers was seen being towed into port as the might NT
had gone blue screen and shut down the entire vessel. Like I said, the
last I heard, the conversion was still going on, even tho NT does not pass
the security requirements of the military. Its important to remember that
criminals always help out their own kind.
