    Proof that Windows XP rocks (PIC)

    NASA still uses it (notice the taskbar)

              NASA still uses computers from the 70's... so nothing amazing there.

                    If you want to hear something funny.. The computers on the shuttle are very old and simple, like 80's and early 90's. The astronauts bring lap tops along to plug in and help run the ship.

                    Space stuff is like banks, they are always 10 years behind on their systems.

                    This is the computer system it uses.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_AP-101

                        Yep, but the fix will cost ya' $23,500 (but they use genuine NASA components).

                                  I bought a new computer and it has vista as its OS. After only a few weeks I really miss XP and may even consider uninstalling Vista! If you have XP, words of advice... Stick with it!

                                                        Space stuff is like banks, they are always 10 years behind on their systems.

                                                        This is the computer system it uses.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_AP-101
                                                        they actually upgraded their flight system to the IBM-AP 101 S in 90 or 91

                                                                                I bought a new webcam from target and plugged it in to my XP machine expecting it to boot right up - instead I spend the next three hours trying to update "service pack" and all these other updates to the OS and all this crap even before I could install the service pack - these downloads put thousands of dll files on my machine and I was forced to restart 3 or 4 times and was unable to work during all this - it was a total nightmare.

                                                                                The mac os is so vastly superior to windows is astonishing anyone still uses microsoft crap.
                                                                                The Slut Boat soon will be making another run
                                                                                The Slut Boat promises something for everyone
