NASA Watch on CNN Pipeline
Editor’s note: Miles O’Brien at CNN just called to have me do a quickie phone interview for his “CNN Pipeline” show. He asked what sort of computers they use on the shuttle/station. I described the IBM ThinkPads – and why NASA tends to stick with one brand, etc.
Miles then joked that he noticed that they were “always rebooting them”. I replied “I am a Mac user so I have no sympathy whatsoever”.
Miles then said “Yea, I guess I set you up for that one”…
