 NASA TV runs on Windows
 

Splitting my time this morning between watcing the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the landing of the Space Shuttle on NASA TV. Interesting to note that their interface for tracking the overall status of the shuttle runs on Windows. Sure, some naysayers will say it's only Windows XP, but fact is that it's Windows not some variant of ye olde UNIX. Seems that NASA understands the value statement of Windows. No point in wasting money on proprietary software for zero return.

Now I'd like to see NASA provide the video feed in HD... this is fascinating stuff and I want to see more!
